Clock Source and Frequency


The NI 5412/5421 has a Sample clock rate of 10 Hz to 100 MHz. The timing of the NI 5412/5421 is very flexible, and you have multiple choices for deriving the Sample clock. There are modes for deriving the Sample clock from the internal Sample clock timebase, as well as modes to provide external clocks. You also have several choices for providing the frequency reference for the onboard phase-locked loop.



Note  The male VHDCI (Digital Data & Control) connector is not available on the NI 5412 or the NI 5421/5422 with the 8 MB memory option.
