FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CORE: Core module interconnects all the sub-modules in the Master IP. Ports of core module are the top level ports for the Master IP. SCL clock is derived from i_clk based on prescaler value.

GLITCH FILTER: Glitch filter is used to remove the spikes shorted than 50 ns in duration for Legacy I2C mode.

PRESCALER: Prescalermodule is used to divide the system clock based on the given prescaler value to derive the serial clock (SCL) input for I3C.

FSM: FSM module process the commands once pending request from CSR and host controller bus is enabled

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.
