Quantizer
Purpose
Apply uniform quantization to input signal
Library
Control / Discontinuous
Description
The Quantizer maps the input signal to an integer multiple of the quantization interval:
\[y = q \cdot \mathrm{round}\left(\frac{u}{q}\right)\]
Parameters
- Quantization interval
The quantum \(q\) used in the mapping function.
- Step detection
When set to
on, the Quantizer produces a zero-crossing signal that enables the solver to detect the precise instants, at which the output needs to change. This may be necessary when quantizing a continuous signal.When set to
off, the Quantizer will not influence the step size of the solver.
Probe Signals
- Input
The input signal.
- Output
The output signal.
