FNXY – Evaluation of two-variables function

Block SymbolLicensing group: STANDARD

Function Description
The FNXY block evaluates basic math functions of two variables. The table below shows the list of supported functions with corresponding constraints. The ifn parameter determines the active function.
List of functions:


ifn: shortcut	function	constraints on u1, u2

1: atan2	arctangent $u1 ∕ u2$	–
2: fmod	remainder after division $u1 ∕ u2$	$u2 \neq 0.0$
3: pow	exponentiation of the inputs $y = {u1}^{u2}$	–

The atan2 function result belongs to the interval $⟨ - π, π ⟩$ . The signs of both inputs u1 a u2 are used to determine the appropriate quadrant.

The fmod function computes the remainder after division $u1 ∕ u2$ such that $u1 = i \cdot u2 + y$ , where $i$ is an integer, the signs of the y output and the u1 input are the same and the following holds for the absolute value of the y output: $| y | < | u2 |$ .

The error output is activated ( $E = on$ ) in the case when the input value u2 does not meet the constraints or an error occurs during evaluation of the selected function (implementation dependent), e.g. division by zero. The output is set to substitute value in such case ( $y = yerr$ ).

This block propagates the signal quality. More information can be found in the 1.4 section.
