Output Ports

Name	Width	Description
Out	<PortWidth>	The output signal
OutDot	<PortWidth>	The derivative of the output signal

Configuration parameters

Name	Width	Description
PortWidth		The number of elements in the signal.
RandomType	1	A bool variable define the type of random function. Choose a constant random number or a variable random number. The variable must be defined as <ConstRandom> or <VariableRandom>.
RandomMin	<PortWidth>	The lower limit for the random numbers.
RandomMax	<PortWidth>	The upper limit for the random numbers.
