+//! It is an additional hardware abstraction on top of the [peripheral access API](https://egit.irs.uni-stuttgart.de/rust/va416xx-rs/src/branch/main/va416xx).
+
+//! It is the result of reading the datasheet for the device and encoding a type-safe layer over the
+//! raw PAC. This crate also implements traits specified by the
+//! [embedded-hal](https://github.com/rust-embedded/embedded-hal) project, making it compatible with
+//! various drivers in the embedded rust ecosystem.

+//! You have to enable one of the following device features to use this crate depending on

+//! - `va41629`
+//! - `va41628`
+//! - `va41620`

+//! When using this HAL and writing applications for the VA416xx family in general, it is strongly
