Fixed-Point Blockset

Detect Fall Negative

Detect a falling edge when the signal's value decreases to a strictly negative value, and its previous value was nonnegative

Library

Edge Detect

Description

The Detect Fall Negative block is a masked block that determines if the input is less than zero, and its previous value was greater than or equal to zero where

• The output is true (not 0), when the input signal is less than zero, and its previous value was greater than or equal to zero.
• The output is false (equal to 0), when the input signal is greater than or equal to zero, or if the input signal is nonnegative, its previous value was positive or zero.
