Using an External Source
Use one of the following external signals as the source of AI Convert
Clock:
• PFI <0..15>
•RTSI <0..7>
•PXI_STAR
• Analog Comparison Event (an analog trigger)
Routing AI Convert Clock Signal to an Output Terminal
You can route AI Convert Clock (as an active low signal) out to any
PFI <0..15>, RTSI <0..7>, or PXIe-DSTARC terminal.
All PFI terminals are configured as inputs by default.
Using a Delay from Sample Clock to Convert Clock
When using the AI timing engine to generate your Convert Clock, you also
can specify a configurable delay from AI Sample Clock to the first AI
Convert Clock pulse within the sample. By default, this delay is three ticks
of AI Convert Clock Timebase.
Figure 4-17 shows the relationship of AI Sample Clock to AI Convert
Clock.
