  • Many answers already mentioned memory mapping. In the microcontroller world, it is kind of easier to see how it works because the driver architecture is almost flat - they directly speak with the hardware registers. Presumably, the simplest and dumbest peripheral is the CRC calculation module. You will see there various macros that just make the code readable. From my observation, the driver implementations tend to use one of three C constructs to access the hardware register:
