Rule
Sub ID a
Unit Delay or Delay blocks shall be used in a discrete model or subsystem.
A Memory block shall be used in a continuous type model or subsystem.
Custom Parameter
Not Applicable
Example — Correct
A Unit Delay block is used in the discrete type model.
Example — Incorrect
A Memory block is used in the discrete type model.
Rationale
Sub ID a:
Adherence to the rule improves readability of the model.
Verification
