System Generator for DSP is a cycle accurate, high-level hardware modeling and implementation tool where the notion of a cycle is analogous to that of clock in hardware. The design can be partitioned into groups of Subsystem blocks, where each Subsystem has a common cycle period, independent of the cycle period of other Subsystems. This section details how blocks can be grouped into one cycle or clock domain and how data can be transferred between these cycle domains. In the rest of this section, the terms cycle and clock are used interchangeably.
