Specify IOB Location Constraints: Checking this option allows IOB location constraints to be specified.

IOB Pad Locations, e.g. {'Valid Bit', 'MSB', ...., 'LSB'}: IOB pin locations can be specified as a cell array of strings in this edit box. The locations are package-specific. For the above example, if a Virtex-E 2000 in a FG680 package is used, the location constraints for the Dout bus can be specified in the dialog box as {'C33', 'B34', 'D33', 'B35'}. This is translated into constraints in the .ucf file in the following way:

# Loc constraints

NET "Dout<0>" LOC = "B35";

NET "Dout<1>" LOC = "D33";

NET "Dout<2>" LOC = "B34";

NET "Dout_valid" LOC = "C33";

Other parameters used by this block are described in the Common Parameters section of the previous chapter.

The Gateway Out block cannot be placed in an enabled subsystem in System Generator v2.1. See the Enabled Subsystems section (within the MATLAB I/O library documentation) explanation for more details.

Quantization Error Blocks

Clear Quantization Error

The Clear Quantization Error block clears the quantization error tracking mechanism on a trace. Inserting this block has no effect on the computation other than the error analysis sections.

Quantization Error

The Xilinx Quantization Error block extracts the quantization error from a fixed point signal. This error is tracked as the difference between the expected value (exact to machine precision) and the actual value of the fixed point signal. You may view the quantization error by sending the output of the block into a display or scope.

Display

This is the Simulink Display block, linked into the Xilinx Blockset’s MATLAB I/O section as a convenience. It is presented as output to the Sample Time display (described next).

Sample Time

The Sample Time block reports the sample period of its input. It is meant to be displayed using the Display block, above.
