Semantic error in Divider

[2010stone]

Hello, I´m looking for a divider to use in System Generator.

How can get 1/1 = 1?

Thank you for your help!

Hi

are the inputs set up correctly.

what are the gateway inpoust set up to

Well, that´s part of my question, I don´t know how I should set up the input and output blocks correctly.

I´ve put it (and the Cordic Divider Block) as unsigned but I don´t get the proper result.

You just need to run the simulation longer. Note the "Z-31" on the Cordic block, which indicates the latency of the block is 31 clock cycles, so the simulation needs to longer than that to see the valid output. If you change the sim time from 10 to 100, you will see the correct result.

I´ve gotten to do 1/1 = 1. The parameter configuration for the CORDIC blocks is 

Number of Processing Elements:1

Data Widht:16

Binary Point Position:14

Latency for each Processing Element [001]: default

The parameters for the two Gateway in blocks are:

Output type: Unsigned

Number of bits: 16

Binary point: 14

Thank you for your response but it  should be contain some error...

See the picture below, the latency of the Cordic Block is 21 and the sim time is 10. So is apparenty is incorrec to afirm that the sim time it has to be higher than the latency of the block to get the proper output result.

Thank you for your attention.

It may work for 1/1, but may not work for all input values. As an exercise for you: try change y inpt to 0.5 and see what you get. The point I'm trying to make is that if the latency of the block is 21, you may get the "right" result earlier, but that's not a valid result. You may also want to read about how CORDIC works before using the CORDIC divider.

You can also use the divider generator.

I´m using the  System Generator of the 9.2.01 version of ISE. Does this version contain Divider Generator?

Thank you.

The divider wasn't added until the 10.x time frame.

Well, I get 1/1 = 1. The parameters configuration are:

Number of Processing Elements: 1

X,Y Data Width: 16

X, Y, Binary Point Position: 14

Latency for each Processing Element [001]:

[1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 ]

But now, I don´t get 0.1/0.2 = 0.5

What can I do it?

Thank you for your help.

Let me say this for the third time (and last time): go back to your orignal model (which is attached to your first message of this thread) and run simulation longer than the latency displayed for the Cordic block.
