M Series User Manual
Table 4-1 shows the input ranges and resolutions supported by each M Series device family.
Analog Input Lowpass Filter
A lowpass filter attenuates signals with frequencies above the cutoff frequency while passing,
with minimal attenuation, signals below the cutoff frequency. The cutoff frequency is defined as
the frequency at which the output amplitude has decreased by 3 dB. Lowpass filters attenuate
noise and reduce aliasing of signals beyond the Nyquist frequency. For example, if the signal of
interest does not have frequency components beyond 40 kHz, then using a filter with a cutoff
frequency at 40 kHz attenuates noise beyond the cutoff that is not of interest. The cutoff
