================ Silicon Labs Peripheral Library ============================
This directory, "EMLIB", contains the Silicon Labs Peripheral Support
library for the EFM32, EZR32 and EFR32 series of microcontrollers and System-On-Chip
devices.
Some design guidelines for this library:
* Follow the guidelines established by ARM's and Silicon Labs's adaptation
of the CMSIS (see below) standard.
* Be usable as a starting point for developing richer, more target specific
functionality (i.e. copy and modify further).
* Ability to be used as a standalone software component, to be used by other
drivers, that should cover "the most common cases".
* Readability of the code and usability preferred before optimization for speed
and size or covering a particular "narrow" purpose.
* As little "cross-dependency" between modules as possible, to enable users to
pick and choose what they want.
================ About CMSIS ================================================
These APIs are based on CMSIS Device header file structure.
As a result of this, the library requires basic C99-support. You might have
to enable C99 support in your compiler. Comments are in doxygen compatible
format.
The CMSIS Device library contains all peripheral module registers and bit field
descriptors.
For more information about CMSIS see

The requirements for using CMSIS also apply to this package.

================ Licenses ====================================================
See the top of each file for software license. Basically you are free to use the
Silicon Labs code for any project using Silicon Labs devices. Parts of the
CMSIS library is copyrighted by ARM Inc. See "License.doc" for ARM's CMSIS
license.
================ Software updates ============================================
Silicon Labs continually works to provide updated and improved EMLIB, example
code and other software of use for Silicon Labs customers. Please check for
software updates in Simplicity Studio
