Embedded software has evolved from low level assembly to slightly easier to read C code that does direct register access. All peripherals were initialized and configured through the setting of individual bits in registers. All drivers in Infineon's PDL provide an abstraction layer above direct register writes; as the API is written entirely in easy to read C code. Initialization and configuration of a peripheral is done simply through only a few function calls and setting of easily recognizable parameters. Users do not have to understand every bit in a register to initialize and configure peripherals, thus reducing reliance on Data Sheets and User Manuals.
