Math Function

The Math Function block performs common mathematical functions on inputs such as exp, log, sqrt. It can accept real or complex inputs and produce real or complex outputs depending on the selected function and output type parameter. Common functions include exp, log, sqrt, and their inverses. It is preferable to the Fcn block when vector or matrix outputs are needed since Fcn only produces scalar outputs.

Description

The Math Function block performs numerous common mathematical functions.

You can select one of these functions from the Function list: exp, log, 10u, log10, magnitude2, square, sqrt, pow,
conj, reciprocal, hypot, rem, mod, transpose, and hermitian. The block output is the result of the operation of the
function on the input or inputs.

The name of the function appears on the block icon. Simulink automatically draws the appropriate number of
input ports.

Use the Math Function block instead of the Fcn block when you want vector or matrix output, because the Fcn
block can produce only scalar output.

Data Type Support


A Math Function block accepts complex or real-valued signals or signal vectors of type double. The output
signal type is real or complex, depending on the setting of the Output signal type parameter.

Parameters and Dialog Box
