Why Use the Simulink Fixed Point Software?

The Simulink Fixed Point software allows you to efficiently design control systems and digital filters that you will implement using fixed-point arithmetic. With the Simulink Fixed Point software, you can construct Simulink and Stateflow models that contain detailed fixed-point information about your systems. You can then perform bit-true simulations with the models to observe the effects of limited range and precision on your designs.

You can configure the Fixed-Point Tool to automatically log the overflows, saturations, and signal extremes of your simulations. You can also use it to automate data typing and scaling decisions and to compare your fixed-point implementations against idealized, floating-point benchmarks.

You can use the Simulink Fixed Point software with the Simulink Coder™ product to automatically generate efficient, integer-only C code representations of your designs. You can use this C code in a production target or for rapid prototyping. You can also use the Simulink Fixed Point software with the Embedded Coder™ product to generate real-time C code for use on an integer production, embedded target.
