- Direct register access patterns
- HAL to LL migration
- Mixed HAL/LL usage
- Performance-critical implementations

### Clock Configuration
- Clock tree setup and optimization
- PLL configuration
- Peripheral clock gating
- Clock source selection
- HSE/HSI/LSE/LSI configuration

### DMA Configuration
