pynq.overlay Module
===================

The pynq.overlay module inherits from the PL module and is used to manage the
state and contents of a PYNQ Overlay. The module adds additional functionality
to the PL module. For example, the PL module contains the methods to download
the overlay file. The Overlay module sets the PL clocks and ARM architecture
registers before before calling the Bitstream download() method.
