Quick googling revealed that the Wiznet (e.g. W7500) and the various NXP LPCxxxx chips contain something which resembles this IP.

Why do you think any STM32 would contain that IP?

In addition to @Community member​'s question,  Why does it matter what specific IP is used?

Every microcontroller manufacturer documents the operation & behaviour of their peripherals, and provides examples, etc, on how to use them - why is the underlying IP relevant?

Yes, it is understood that every micro controller manufacturer have their own peripherals and examples. As like cortex-M4 series is ARM IP and some soc vendors made have soc's, exploring other IP's from ARM to gain more understanding about various SPI IP's.

At present I am working with the STM32F446VE series board. In lieu that exploring the STM boards, incase if any have the specified IP. I dont think it is insane to ask.

SPI to a CPU core is an apples-to-oranges comparison.

With the CPU, it does specifically matter - because it defines the entire development toolchain, environment, and ecosystem.

But why is that particular SPI implementation important to you?

Does it do something in particular that you need - and can't find elsewhere?
