Ports

Port Dir Data Type Description
c IN 2*BitWidth Fixed point A complex number whose higher BitWidth bits are its real part and lower BitWidth bits are its imaginary part.
power OUT UFix_(2*BitWidth)_(2*BitWidth-1) The computed power of the input complex number.

Description

Usage

The power block typically has a latency of 5 and will compute the power of its input by taking the sum of the squares of its real and imaginary components.
