Bits-to-words (transmitter) (labview)

Input/outputs and help

The sub-VI for the rather trivial operation of converting a string of bits to bit-words is shown above in Figure 1. Only basic knowledge ofLabVIEW is required to implement this module. While some may argue it's trivial and non-deserving of its own sub-VI, modularity and readability still prevail in gooddesign technique, and this transmitter is no exception.

Block diagram layout

Figure 2 above shows the block diagram layout. The parallel bits are taken as an input and fed into the built-in LabVIEW function"Reshape Array," which groups the number of bits appropriately.

For the logisitics in actually constructing this function, see the video below. For any additional questions, the example usage video in Figure 4, or email the author.
