Splitter (`splitter_c`)

Splits a single input into multiple outputs.

Design

This Splitter implementation splits (purely duplicates) the input to one or more (up to four) outputs. All connected outputs must be ready to accept data before any data is output by the component. The RCC worker checks that all connected ports are ready before outputting data. The HDL worker uses the output_X_in.reset signal to test whether an output port is connected. If a port is not connected the logic by default sets it to be ready all the time.

The mathematical representation of the implementation is given in (80).

(80)\[\begin{split}y_1[n] = x[n]\\ y_2[n] = x[n]\\ y_3[n] = x[n]\\ y_4[n] = x[n]\\\end{split}\]

In (80):

\(x[n]\) is the input values.

\(y_1[n]\) is the output values.

\(y_2[n]\), :math:’y_3[n]’ and :math:’y_4[n]’ are the optional output values.

A block diagram representation of the implementation is given in Figure 124:.
