full period to reduce memory size). The input signal must be an unsigned integer.
The block can produce a sine or cosine (or its negative) at one output port, or both sine
and cosine (or their negatives) at two output ports, depending on customization
parameters. Stepping through the memory produces sampled sinusoids on the
block's output port(s), with output frequency determined by the address increment.
Although the error is quite small for practical choices of output width, the
implementation is unbalanced; that is, values are stored in the memory as two's
complement numbers having exactly one sign bit. Consequently, sample values of the
Math
Shift Direction: specifies a direction, Left or Right. The Right shift moves the
input toward the least significant bit within its container, with appropriate sign
extension. Bits shifted out of the container are discarded. The Left shift moves the
input toward the most significant bit within its container with zero padding of the
least significant bits. Bits shifted out of the container are discarded.
Number of Bits: specifies how many bits are shifted. If the number is negative,
direction selected with Shift direction is reversed.
The Xilinx Sine Cosine block computes sin(x) and/or cos(x).
It stores a reference sinusoid in a read-only memory (ROM),
whose depth is defined by the width of the block's single
input port. An N-bit input address results in a logical ROM
