Application Programming Interface
The driver Application Programming Interface (API) is a list of high-level functions that can be
invoked by application programmers to configure, control and monitor S/UNI-4x622 devices.
The API functions perform operations that are more meaningful from a system’s perspective. The
API includes functions such as:
RTOS
Function Calls Application Callbacks
Hardware
Interrupts
Service Callbacks
