bitscope micro bs05

Question

I want to generate a single wave pulse with a certain frequency but not a continuous wave. is that possible? if yes how do I achieve it with bitscope micro Bs05?

What you have described above sounds like a repeating pulse - it has frequency. There is a user manual here - look in the Wavegen section. There also seems to be a lot of other on-line support .

Hello Abhiram There are multiple ways to generate a single pulse. How it might be done is dependent on things you haven’t specified such as pulse duration, shape, voltage, accuracy, etc, etc. I am not familiar with the Bitscope but perhaps you could use it. A single on / off pulse is easy with a microcontroller, any might work depending on duration, but an Arduino would easily be set up. More information would be helpful - how is this to be used? Does it have to be generated by a Bitscope?

exactly.. so what do i do??

On the list of possibly pointless tasks, this seems high unfortunately. Have you not questioned why it needs to be 5 minutes, or why you cannot use (say) an Arduino?

There's an API for the Bitscope, you could try that.. but you may find it hard to find people with experience in that to do such a specific thing with it. An Arduino or Pi is 1000 times as popular.

You should try to move the problem into something you actually have a chance to solve.

What is the lowest frequency you can set?

With the symmetry setting in its lowest, you can get a 1% duty cycle.

If you can put frequency down to 1/(5*60) = 0.0033333, you’d have a pulse of 3 sec (5*60) * 1% every 5 minutes...

Then a pulse every 5 minutes is out of its range.
