Data Position Delay Resolution

NI digital waveform generator/analyzers have three internal independent delay mechanisms, one for dynamic generation, one for dynamic acquisition, and one for the exported Sample clock. The delay mechanisms are capable of delaying the data and clock positions by up to one full Sample clock period, in steps of 1/256 of the Sample clock period, for Sample clock frequencies of 25 MHz and above. Refer to the specifications document for your device for valid frequencies and ranges for delays.

Note  NI 656x devices have special considerations for legal delayed data settings for Sample clock frequencies between 25 and 50 MHz.

The following table lists the resolution of the delay mechanisms for the frequencies that the NI digital waveform generator/analyzer internal Sample clock can produce. For externally supplied frequencies above 25 MHz that are not listed in this table, the delay resolution is 1/256 of the Sample clock period.
