Floating Point Comparator

Library:	Arithmetic
Introduced:	3.5
Appearance:

Behavior

This component compares two floating-point values coming in via the west inputs .
and presents three output signals > = <. normally only one of these values is a 1 if an error is detected all outputs are a 0 and and the error output output in the south, which is set to 1 if the component receives an error(E) or undefined(U) signal or the floating-point values NaN

Pins

West edge, north end:: Input: The first floating-point value to compare. Bit width matches the Data Float size attribute.
West edge, south end:: Input: The second floating-point value to compare. Bit width matches the Data Float size attribute.
East edge: labeled >: Output: 1 if the first input is greater than the second input, 0 if the first input is less than or equal the second input. The bit width is 1.
East edge: labeled =: Output: 1 if the first input equals the second input, 0 if the first input is not equal the second input. The bit width is 1.
East edge: labeled <: Output: 1 if the first input is greater than the second input, 0 if the first input is less than or equal the second input. The bit width is 1.
South edge:: OutPut: Error Set to 1 if the negator receives an error (E) or undefined (U) signal or the float value NaN

Attributes

When the component is selected or being multiply, Alt-0 throught Alt-9 alter its Float size attribute. Only 32 or 64bits

Float size: The bit width of the values to be multiply and of the result. Only 32 or 64 bits

Poke Tool Behavior

None.

Text Tool Behavior

None.
