sfix - Create MATLAB structure describing signed generalized fixed-point data type
Syntax
a = sfix(TotalBits)
Description
sfix(TotalBits) returns a MATLAB structure that describes the
data type of a signed generalized fixed-point number with a word size
given by TotalBits.
sfix is automatically called when a signed
generalized fixed-point data type is specified in a block dialog box.
Note
A default binary point is not included in this data type description.
Instead, the scaling must be explicitly defined in the block dialog
box. |
Examples
Define a 16-bit signed generalized fixed-point data type:
a = sfix(16)
a =
Class: 'FIX'
IsSigned: 1
MantBits: 16
