Description

The Width block generates as output the width of its input vector.

Data Type Support

The Width block accepts real or complex signals of any data type supported by Simulink, including fixed-point data types. The Width block supports mixed-type signal vectors.

For a discussion on the data types supported by Simulink, refer to Data Types Supported by Simulink in the Using Simulink documentation.

Parameters and Dialog Box

Note    The Width block ignores the Data Type Override setting of the Fixed-Point Settings interface.

Output data type mode

Specify the output data type to be the same as the input, or inherit the data type by backpropagation. You can also choose to specify a built-in data type from the drop-down list in the Output data type parameter.

Output data type

This parameter is visible when Choose intrinsic data type is selected for the Output data type mode parameter. Choose a built-in data type from the drop-down list.
