Inputs/Outputs

datatype_icon

x

The dividend.

This input supports scalar numbers, arrays, or clusters of numbers, arrays of clusters of numbers, and waveforms.

A waveform can only be divided by either another waveform or a scalar numeric value.

Data Type Changes on FPGA

When you add this node to a document targeted to an FPGA, this input has a default data type that uses fewer hardware resources at compile time.

datatype_icon

y

The divisor.

This input supports scalar numbers, arrays or clusters of numbers, arrays of clusters of numbers, and waveforms.

A waveform can only be divided by either another waveform or a scalar numeric value.

Data Type Changes on FPGA

When you add this node to a document targeted to an FPGA, this input has a default data type that uses fewer hardware resources at compile time.

datatype_icon

error in

Error conditions that occur before this node runs.

The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.

This input appears only when you wire a waveform to input.

Standard Error Behavior

datatype_icon

x / y

The quotient.

In general, the output type is the widest representation of the inputs if the inputs are not integers or if their representations differ.

Behavior with Integers

If both x and y are integers, x / y is a double-precision, floating-point number.

Data Type Changes on FPGA

When you add this node to a document targeted to an FPGA, this output has a default data type that uses fewer hardware resources at compile time.

datatype_icon

error out

The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.

This output appears only when you wire a waveform to input.
