Fixed-Point Arithmetic
Fixed-point arithmetic refers to how signed or unsigned binary words are operated on. The simplicity of fixed-point arithmetic functions such as addition and subtraction allows for cost-effective hardware implementations.
Topics
Addition, subtraction, multiplication, casts, modulo, and two’s complement arithmetic.
Rules for Arithmetic Operations
Rules that the Simulink® software follows when arithmetic operations are performed on inputs and parameters.
