## Description

From a schema perspective, CMSIS-SVD Version 1.1 and 1.2 are fully backward compatible to version 1.0. Many of the features added in version 1.1 are required for generating CMSIS-Core device header files from a CMSIS SVD description. It is expected that today all CMSIS-SVD descriptions will comply with version 1.1. In version 1.2 Cortex-M7 related extensions have been added to the cpu section exclusively used for device header file generation. These extensions are only mandatory for Cortex-M7 based devices.
