+/**
+ * @defgroup SIO SIO Driver
+ * @brief Generic SIO Driver.
+ * @details This driver abstracts a generic serial communication channel,
+ * usually an UART, this driver is similar to Serial and UART drivers
+ * but follows a different concept:
+ * - Very close to HW.
+ * - No buffering done in SW, the driver relies on the peripheral
+ * internal FIFO, if any.
+ * - Asynchronous, the API is always non blocking.
+ * - Callbacks capable, operations completion and other events are
+ * notified using callbacks.
+ * - Very short code paths, especially in ISRs.
+ * .
+ * @pre In order to use the SIO driver the @p HAL_USE_SIO option
+ * must be enabled in @p halconf.h.
+ *
+ * @section sio_1 Driver State Machine
+ * The driver implements a state machine internally, not all the driver
+ * functionalities can be used in any moment, any transition not explicitly
+ * shown in the following diagram has to be considered an error and shall
+ * be captured by an assertion (if enabled).
+ * @dot
