I/O Order
The I/O order determines order of samples entering and leaving the FFT and also determines if the FFT is
operating in engine-only mode or engine with bit-reversal or digit-reversal mode.
If the FFT operates in engine-only mode, the output data is available after approximately N + latency
clocks cycles after the first sample was input to the FFT. Latency represents a small latency through the
FFT core and depends on the transform size. For engine with bit-reversal mode, the output is available
after approximately 2N + latency cycles.
