UTOI – Unsigned to signed integer number conversion

Block SymbolLicensing group: STANDARD

Function Description
The block regards input (positive) number as a binary complement representation of signed number (e.g. comon representation in today processors). The range of the representation is defined by the parameter bits. Typical ussage is parsing signal from data structures of comunication driver. If one of comunicating processor is big-endian and second processor little-endian you can need swap byte order. It is realize by the SWAP parameter. It is recommended to set SWAP=on only in case the bits parameter is set to 16 or 32 because other cases ussualy not solve endianess problem.

Input

u	Unsigned input signal $↓$ -9.22337E+18 $↑$ 9.22337E+18	Large (I64)

Parameters

bits	Valid (LSB) bits in input signal $↓$ 2 $↑$ 64 $⊙$ 16	Long (I32)
SWAP	Swap input byte order	Bool

Output

i	Converted (signed) input signal	Large (I64)
