Yokogawa Electric Develops Key Components for Next-Generation Optical Networks with Simulink and Men

"End-to-end system development with Simulink has streamlined our current design flow. We found virtually all bugs before hardware prototyping using Simulink and Mentor Graphics, and this cut development time in half." - Chie Sato, Yokogawa Electric Corporation

Fixed-Point Toolbox

Description

Introduction

Fixed-Point Toolbox™ provides fixed-point data types and arithmetic in MATLAB®. The toolbox lets you design fixed-point algorithms using MATLAB syntax and execute them at compiled C-code speed. You can reuse these algorithms in Simulink® and pass fixed-point data to and from Simulink models, facilitating bit-true simulation, implementation, and analysis. The toolbox also enables you to generate test sequences for fixed-point software and hardware verification.

Key Features

  • Fixed-point data types in MATLAB with word lengths up to 65,535 bits
  • Global and local settings for performing fixed-point arithmetic
  • Logical and bitwise operators and native integers
  • Fixed-point data types usable in both MATLAB and Simulink
  • Data logging, data-type override, and other tools for floating-to-fixed-point conversion
  • Accelerated execution of fixed-point algorithms in MATLAB
