-to <arg> - (Optional) The ending index of a standard bus pin. This is unspecified for single bit pins.
-dir [ I | O | IO ] - (Required) The direction of the pin. Valid values are I for input, O for output, and IO for bidirectional pins.
-type <arg> - (Optional) Defines the type of the pin as a clock pin (CLK), a reset pin (RST), a clock enable pin (CE), an interrupt pin (INTR), or as a data pin (DATA). If you do not define the pin type, it will be undefined (UNDEF).
