There are several clock sources that are available for the different peripherals. You are advised to read [AN0004](https://www.silabs.com/Support%20Documents/TechnicalDocs/AN0004.pdf) to get familiar with the different clocks.

### Low-power peripherals
The low-power UART is capable of providing an UART peripheral using a low-speed clock. When the LFB clock source is the LFRCO or LFXO, it can still be used in EM2. However, this limits the baud rate to 9600 baud. If a higher baud rate is desired, set the clock source to CORELEDIV2.

RIOT-OS has support for *Real-Time Tickers* and *Real-Time Clocks*.
However, this board MCU family has support for a 32-bit *Real-Time Clock and Calendar*, which can be configured in ticker mode **or** calendar mode. Therefore, only one of both peripherals can be enabled at the same time.

### Usage of emlib
This port makes uses of emlib by Silicon Labs to abstract peripheral registers. While some overhead is to be expected, it ensures proper setup of devices, provides chip errata and simplifies development. The exact overhead depends on the application and peripheral usage, but the largest overhead is expected during peripheral setup. A lot of read/write/get/set methods are implemented as inline methods or macros (which have no overhead).

Another advantage of emlib are the included assertions. These assertions ensure that peripherals are used properly. To enable this, pass `DEBUG_EFM` to your compiler.

### Pin locations
The EFM32 platform supports peripherals to be mapped to different pins (predefined locations). The definitions in `periph_conf.h` mostly consist of a location number and the actual pins. The actual pins are required to configure the pins via GPIO driver, while the location is used to map the peripheral to these pins.
