Chapter 1: Introduction
The Xilinx DSP Block Set
Over 90 DSP building blocks are provided in the Xilinx DSP blockset for Simulink. These
blocks include the common DSP building blocks such as adders, multipliers and registers.
Also included are a set of complex DSP building blocks such as forward error correction
blocks, FFTs, filters and memories. These blocks leverage the Xilinx IP core generators to
deliver optimized results for the selected device.
