The delay ranges given for PFI and RTSI represent the fastest and slowest terminal routing within the trigger group for a
given condition (maximum or minimum timing). This difference can be useful when two external signals will be used
together and the relative timing between the signals is important.
â€
When DI Sample Clock is routed to a PFI output pin, the pulse width of the output is independent of the pulse width of the
input. The pulse width is specified in a number of periods of the 80 MHz Timebase
