+ * @brief I/O Ports Abstraction Layer

  * @details This module defines an abstract interface for digital I/O ports.

  * Note that I/O ports functions are just a set of macros. The macros

- * have default software implementation that can be redefined by an

- * @ref IOPortsLLD if the target hardware supports special features like, as

- * example, atomic bit set/reset/masking. Please refer to the documentation

- * of the low level drivers for each port.<br>

- * This abstraction system has the advantage to make the access to the I/O

- * ports platform independent and still be optimized for the specific

- * architecture.<br>

+ * The @ref PAL has the advantage to make the access to the I/O ports platform

  * Currently the I/O ports interface does not handle physical port programming

  * like direction, pull up/down resistors etc. The interface only allows input

  * and output operations but this may change in future releases.<br>

- * Note that the @ref IOPortsLLD may also offer non standard macro and

- * functions in order to support specific features but, of course, the use of

- * such interfaces would not be portable.
