... Bundlers
A bundler is used primarily to "repackage" parallel connections into different bus groupings. It has several secondary uses (modes) as
well. You select a bundler's bit width, bundle/unbundle pattern and
mode using its Action menu.
Set Bundle/Unbundle Pattern
Determines the grouping of individual wires into buses. The following
example illustrates using a bundler with bit width 8, converting an
input pattern of 5-3 to an output pattern of 4-4:
Bundler Mode
Groups bus inputs and outputs according to bundle/unbundle pattern; e.g.
Bit Multiplier Mode
Distributes single bit input to multiple outputs. Only output bundle
pattern used; e.g.
Bit Collector Mode
Single-bit output disjunction of multiple inputs. Only input bundle
pattern used; e.g.
Named Source/Sink
Forms virtual connection between named sink (input) and one or more
named sources (output) with the same name. Sink (source) only uses
input (output) bundle pattern; e.g.
