+ARM Coresight Trace Deformatter
+###############################
+
+Formatter is a method of wrapping multiple trace streams (specified by 7 bit ID) into a
+single output stream. Formatter is using 16 byte frames which wraps up to 15 bytes of
+data. It is used, for example, by ETR (Embedded Trace Router) which is a circular RAM
+buffer where data from various trace streams can be saved. Typically tracing data is
+decoded offline by the host but deformatter can be used on-chip to decode the data during
+application runtime.
+
+Usage
+#####
+
+Deformatter is initialized with a user callback. Data is decoded using
+:c:func:`cs_trace_defmt_process` in 16 bytes chunks. Callback is called whenever stream changes or
+end of chunk is reached. Callback contains stream ID and the data.
