Description

TheMuxblock combines inputs with the same data type and complexity into a vector output. The output mux signal is flat, even if you create the mux signal from other mux signals. However, you can use multipleMuxblocks to create a mux signal in stages.

A mux signal simplifies the visual appearance of a model by combining two or more signal lines into one line. Mux signals do not affect simulation or code generation.

Tip

If inputs have different data types or complexity, use a virtual bus to visually group the signals. For more information, seeTypes of Composite Signals.

Ports

Input

`Port_1`— Input signal to include in mux signal
scalar | vector

Input signal to include in the mux signal, specified as a scalar or vector.

The input signals for aMuxblock can be any combination of scalars and vectors, but they must have the same data type and complexity.

Output

expand all

`Port_1`— Output mux signal
vector

Output mux signal composed of the combined input signals, returned as a vector.

The elements of the output mux signal take their order from the port order of the input signals. For a description of the port order for various block orientations, seePort Location After Rotating or Flipping.

Parameters

`Number of inputs`— Number of input signals
2 (default) | scalar | vector | cell array | comma-separated list of signal names

The number of input signals, specified as a scalar, vector, cell array, or comma-separated list of signal names. Some of these formats allow you to specify the signal names and sizes, as described by the following table.

Format	Block Behavior
Scalar	The number of inputs to theMuxblock. When you use this format, the block accepts scalar or vector signals of any size. Simulink^®assigns each input the name`signalN`, where`N`is the input port number.
Vector	The length of the vector specifies the number of inputs. Each element specifies the size of the corresponding input. A positive value specifies that the corresponding port can accept only vectors of that size. For example,`[2 3]`specifies two input ports of sizes`2`and`3`, respectively. If an input signal width does not match the expected width, an error message appears. A value of`-1`specifies that the corresponding port can accept scalars or vectors of any size.
Cell array	The length of the cell array specifies the number of inputs. The value of each cell specifies the size of the corresponding input. A scalar value`N`specifies a vector of size`N`. A value of`-1`means that the corresponding port can accept scalar or vector signals of any size.
Comma-separated list of signal names	A list of signal names separated by commas. Simulink assigns each name to the corresponding port and signal. For example, if you enter`position,velocity`,Muxblock has two inputs, named`position`and`velocity`.

Tip

If you specify a scalar for theNumber of inputsparameter and all of the input ports are connected, as you draw a new signal line close to input side of aMuxblock, Simulink adds a port and updates the parameter.

Programmatic Use

Open Model

Automotive Suspension

Model a simplified half-car model that includes an independent front and rear vertical suspension. The model also includes body pitch and bounce degrees of freedom. The example provides a description of the model to show how simulation can be used to investigate ride characteristics. You can use this model in conjunction with a powertrain simulation to investigate longitudinal shuffle resulting from changes in throttle setting.

HDL Coder™ provides additional configuration options that affect HDL implementation and synthesized logic.

HDL Architecture

This block has a single, default HDL architecture.

HDL Block Properties

ConstrainedOutputPipeline	Number of registers to place at the outputs by moving existing delays within your design. Distributed pipelining does not redistribute these registers. The default is`0`. For more details, seeConstrainedOutputPipeline(HDL Coder).
InputPipeline	Number of input pipeline stages to insert in the generated code. Distributed pipelining and constrained output pipelining can move these registers. The default is`0`. For more details, seeInputPipeline(HDL Coder).
OutputPipeline	Number of output pipeline stages to insert in the generated code. Distributed pipelining and constrained output pipelining can move these registers. The default is`0`. For more details, seeOutputPipeline(HDL Coder).
