Use Cases
- AXI-Stream datapath integration where module boundaries need explicit ready/valid behavior.
- Reusable FPGA DSP pipelines that need fixed-point, timing-aware implementation.
- Memory-mapped control/status integration with software-visible register maps.

);Generics
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| VENDOR | string | "xilinx" | Selects the vendor-specific implementation path, usually XILINX for DSP48/XPM-backed builds or generic for portable RTL. |
| DEVICE_FAMILY | string | "generic" | Identifies the target FPGA family so wrappers can choose the correct primitive or conservative portable behavior. |
| DATA_WIDTH | positive | 16 | Sets the bit width for DATA WIDTH values carried by this module. |
| COEFF_FRAC_BITS | natural | 15 | Sets coefficient precision or coefficient count for the fixed-point DSP operation. |
