FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CORE: Core module interconnects all the sub-modules in the I2C Master IP. Ports of core module are the top level ports for the I2C Master IP.
PRESCALAR: Prescaler module is used to divide the system clock based on the given prescaler value to derive the serial clock (SCL) input for I2C.
FSM: FSM module process the commands once pending request from CSR and the bus is enabled. For Example: I2C write, Master FSM will send Slave address, R/W bit, Write data and waits for ACK/NACK from Slave.
CSR: CSR module has all the registers. The contents of the registers are decoded and assigned to its respective output ports based on its functionality.
