133 <div class="textblock"><p><a class="anchor" id="md_src_core_device_files"></a> The <b>CMSIS-Core Device Files</b> implement CMSIS-Core support for a specific microcontroller device or family of devices. These files are typically provided by the device vendor and use <a class="el" href="cmsis_core_files.html#cmsis_standard_files">CMSIS-Core Standard Files</a> via #include directives.</p>
134 <p>CMSIS-Core specifies the organization of CMSIS-Core Device Files, defines their functionalities, and provides unified naming conventions. This brings following benefits:</p><ul>
135 <li>Simplified device support for vendors with fast scaling for device families and variants on all Arm Cortex-M cores.</li>
136 <li>Uniform workflows and experience for application developers.</li>
138 <p>Following CMSIS-Core Device Files are defined:</p><ul>
139 <li><a class="el" href="system_c_pg.html">System Configuration Files system_<Device>.c and system_<Device>.h</a></li>
140 <li><a class="el" href="device_h_pg.html">Device Header File <Device.h></a></li>
141 <li><a class="el" href="startup_c_pg.html">Startup File startup_<Device>.c</a></li>

147 <h1><a class="anchor" id="cmsis_template_files"></a>
148 Device Template Files</h1>
149 <p>CMSIS-Core includes the template files that simplify the creation of CMSIS-Core Device Files for a specific device variant.</p>
150 <p>Silicon vendors typically need to add to these template files the following information:</p><ul>
151 <li><b>Device Peripheral Access Layer</b> that provides definitions for device-specific peripherals.</li>
152 <li><b>Access Functions for Peripherals</b> (optional) that provides additional helper functions to access device-specific peripherals.</li>
153 <li><b>Interrupt vectors</b> in the startup file that are device specific.</li>

181 <p><b>Adapt Template Files to a Device</b></p>
