+ * Mid level interface to the Universal Software Radio Peripheral (Rev 1)
+ *
+ * These classes implement the basic functionality for talking to the
+ * USRP. They try to be as independent of the signal processing code
+ * in FPGA as possible. They implement access to the low level
+ * peripherals on the board, provide a common way for reading and
+ * writing registers in the FPGA, and provide the high speed interface
+ * to streaming data across the USB.
+ *
+ * It is expected that subclasses will be derived that provide
+ * access to the functionality to a particular FPGA configuration.
