Operator BRANCH

Operator Library: Base

The BRANCH operator clones the input link to a parameterizable number of output links. You can define the number of output links when you add the operator to your design. No FPGA resources are required for this operator.

[Tip] Inserting a New BRANCH into an Existing Link

Besides the possibility to insert a BRANCH operator form the operator library, you can also insert a BRANCH operator directly into an existing link. To do this, right click a link and select Split Link.... For more information, see 'Inserting Operators' .
