9.1.3. ALU Folding Simulation Rate

In the ALU folding parameters, you can specify Data rate or Clock rate for Simulation rate. the Simulation rate only controls the simulink simulation; the hardware is identical.

Date rate simulation offers the following features:

  • Simulates faster.
  • Simulates original unfolded model.
  • Each Simulink sample represents a data sample.
  • Generates automatic ModelSim testbench (if turned on in the Control block).

Clock rate simulation offers:

  • Simulink sample rates identical to the clock rate.
  • Simulation matches the hardware interface.
  • Modelling of clock level timings and jitter in the data inputs.
