Pulse patterns with 512us repetition cycle through PCI 7811 with compac RIO

Question

Can we generate specific pulse pattern of 15 to 30 pulses (500KHz frequency and 0.5us pulse width and patterns are transmitted repetedly with 512us interval) using PCI 7811 with compac RIO. I am having hardware but donot find any help in this regard. If some body send a small vi. for help. I shall be really thankful
Yours sincerely

Answer 1

Here's a VI I put together quickly that outputs a fixed pattern. It's barely tested, but it does compile on FPGA. Outputting more than one pattern will require more code, especially since all arrays in FPGA must be fixed-length. If you need to do multiple patterns, and I'm guessing that you do based on your other forum thread, I would look into using a memory block. I am assuming here that the output during the interval between patterns is equivalent to filling that time with false values (no pulse). If that is not the case then you will need to explain what the output should be during that period.
However, if I've correctly understood that the false case is equivalent to no pulses, then it will be easier to use the digital hardware from your other thread instead of FPGA to do this. Just write a pattern that is 512us long - extend your digital pattern with false values to make it the full 512us period.
EDIT: There are a couple of logic errors in this code.  It should count to 255, not 1023, and the pattern isn't right on the first iteration. I hope it's enough to get you started, though.
