Byte ordering

Description

Describe the byte ordering for the selected hardware.

Category: Hardware Implementation

Settings

Default: Little Endian

Unspecified

Specifies that the code determines the endianness of the hardware. This choice is the least efficient.

Big Endian

The most significant byte appears first in the byte ordering.

Little Endian

The least significant byte appears first in the byte ordering.

Dependencies

  • Selecting a device by using the Device vendor and Device type parameters sets a device-specific value for this parameter.

  • This parameter is enabled only if you can modify it for the selected hardware.

Command-Line Information

Parameter: ProdEndianess
Type: string

Safety precaution

No recommendation for simulation without code generation.
For simulation with code generation, select your Device vendor and Device type if they are available in the drop-down list.  If your Device vendor and Device type are not available, set device-specific values by using Custom Processor.
