Purpose

Expand a scalar input signal to a vector signal with the width of the reference signal. If the input signal has the same width as the reference signal, it is passed through unchanged.

Description

The Scalar Expander block expands a scalar input signal to a vector signal with the width of the reference signal. In that case, every component of the output vector signal equals the input signal. If the input signal happens to be a vector signal of the same width as the reference signal, the input signal is passed through unchanged. If the input signal is a vector signal of a different width than the reference signal, an error will be reported.
