Fixed-Point Tools VIs
Owning Palette: Digital Filter Design VIs and Functions
Installed With: Digital Filter Design Toolkit. This topic might not match its corresponding palette in LabVIEW depending on your operating system, licensed product(s), and target.
Use the Fixed-Point Tools VIs to quantize coefficients, model the behavior of fixed-point filters, simulate filtering processes, generate statistics reports, and generate fixed-point target code.
The VIs on this palette can return general LabVIEW error codes or specific digital filter design error codes.
| Palette Object | Description |
|---|---|
| DFD Convert FXP to Integer | Converts fixed-point numbers to integers. You must manually select the polymorphic instance you want to use. |
| DFD Convert Integer to FXP | Converts integers to fixed-point numbers. Wire data to the I16 input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance. |
| DFD FXP Code Generator | Generates fixed-point code from a fixed-point filter, including fixed-point LabVIEW field-programmable gate array (FPGA) code, integer LabVIEW code, and C code. You must manually select the polymorphic instance you want to use. |
| DFD FXP Coef Report | Generates a text report about the coefficients of a fixed-point filter. |
| DFD FXP Get Quantizer | Retrieves quantizer settings from a fixed-point filter. You must manually select the polymorphic instance you want to use. |
| DFD FXP Modeling | Creates a fixed-point filter model according to the input and output word length settings. |
| DFD FXP Postprocessing | Converts the output signal of a fixed-point filter from a fixed-point integer representation to a floating-point representation. You must manually select the polymorphic instance you want to use. |
| DFD FXP Quantize Coef | Quantizes the coefficients of a floating-point filter and generates a fixed-point filter. You must manually select the polymorphic instance you want to use. |
| DFD FXP Set Quantizer | Sets a quantizer or quantizers in a fixed-point filter. You must manually select the polymorphic instance you want to use. |
| DFD FXP Simulation Report | Creates a text report of filtering statistics from the DFD FXP Simulation VI or the DFD FXP Simulation with State VI. |
| DFD FXP Simulation with State | Simulates the filtering process with initial internal states and generates the filtering statistics report for a fixed-point filter. Wire data to the signal in input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance. |
| DFD FXP Simulation | Simulates the filtering process continuously and generates a filtering statistics report for a fixed-point filter. Wire data to the signal in input to determine the polymorphic instance to use or manually select the instance. |
