 134 <li><b>Methods to organize header files</b> that makes it easy to learn new Cortex-A microcontroller products and improve software portability. This includes naming conventions for device-specific interrupts.</li>
 135 <li><b>Methods for system initialization</b> to be used by each MCU vendor. For example, the standardized <a class="el" href="group__system__init__gr.html#ga93f514700ccf00d08dbdcff7f1224eb2" title="Function to Initialize the system.">SystemInit()</a> function is essential for configuring the clock system of the device.</li>
 136 <li><b>Intrinsic functions</b> used to generate CPU instructions that are not supported by standard C functions.</li>
 137 <li>A variable to determine the <b>system clock frequency</b> which simplifies the setup of the system timers.</li>
