+The Software was implemented on the _TM4C1294NCPDT_ from Texas Instruments.
+It includes an 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4F single-core processor with a clock frequency
+of 120-MHz. In addition, a 1024KB flash memory ROM1 is avalable. This is loaded with
+TivaWare C Series software. For communication purposes the board provides several interfaces. Figure 1 shows the block diagram of the available software for the microcontroller.

+Two build in buses ensure a connection between the core and various peripherals. The first,
+called Advanced Peripheral Bus (APB), is an obsolate bus. The second, named Advanced High Performance Bus (AHP), offers better acces performance than the APB.

+== Program Flow
+
+The TIVA-C board needs a main application to run the microcontroller. Figure 2 shows the
+flowchart of the microcontroller application.

+First of all, the system clock has to be set to run the program with 120 MHz. Subsequently, the
+configurations of several peripherals has to be conducted, which is described in the following
+sections in more detail. The main application needs an infinite while loop to run the program.
+This is necessary to run the timers and to ensure handling of sampled data packages which
+are sent to the GUI over the USB.
