through a software output command.

Timed Waveform Generation

This mode can provide your applications with a precise D/A output
with a fixed update rate. It can be used to generate an infinite or
finite waveform. You can accurately program the update period of
the D/A converters.

The D/A output timing is provided through a combination of
counters in the FPGA on board. There are totally 5 counters to be
specified. These counters are:

UI_counter (24 bits): specify the DA Update

Interval = CHUI_counter/TIMEBASE.

UC_counter (24 bits): specify the total Update

Counts in a single waveform

IC_counter (24 bits): specify the Iteration

Counts of waveform.

DA_DLY1_counter (16 bits): specify the Delay from

the trigger to the first update start.

DA_DLY2_counter (16 bits): specify the Delay

between two consecutive waveform
generations.
