Figure 3-3 shows the timing requirements for the CtrnSource signal.
Figure 3-3. Timing Requirements for CtrnSource Signal
Figure 3-3 shows the minimum period and pulse width that you must use
for the CtrnSource signal. This signal must satisfy both minimum criteria.
If the high phase of the CtrnSource signal is Tsrcpw ns, the low phase must
be Tsrcper – Tsrcpw.
The minimum pulse width and period listed in Table 3-4 is the minimum
required for the internal signals. The TIO device has signal requirements in
order to pass through the isolation circuitry. For more information about
these signal requirements, refer to the NI 660x Specifications document,
which is available at
ni.com/manuals.
