Zero Crossing Detector

 

Description

This component detects when the input crosses zero, and differentiates between positive and negative crossings.  A zero crossing on the input with a positive 1st derivative will produce a single time step output of 1.   A zero crossing on the input with a negative 1st derivative will produce a single-time-step output of -1.  At all other times the output is 0.

 

If Interpolation Compatibility is enabled, then the interpolated information (i.e. for the exact zero crossing time) is generated by the device and sent to the output.
