FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
CORE: Core Module interconnects all the sub-modules in the SafeSPI IP. Ports of core module are the top level ports for the SafeSPI IP.
FSM: FSM Module generates the SafeSPI transcations on SafeSPI Slave based on commands from CSR block. This blocks implements all the features of SafeSPI specifications.
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.
