Overview

A ChipLib YAML file represents a single integrated circuit (IC) or IP block. The file is structured into four primary sections:

1. Metadata: Top-level information identifying the chip.
2. Defaults: Global settings applied to registers unless overridden.
3. Enums: Shared enumeration definitions for bit-fields.
4. Registers: The complete memory map definition.
