Clocking:Digitizer Sample Clock Timebase Source Property

Short Name: Digitizer Sample Clock Timebase Source

Property of niRFSA

Specifies the source of the Sample Clock timebase, which is the timebase used to control waveform sampling.

Default Value: OnboardClock

Supported Devices: PXI-5661, PXIe-5663/5663E/5665/5667/5668

OnboardClock ("OnboardClock")

The digitizer uses its onboard clock as the Sample Clock timebase.

ClkIn ("ClkIn")

The digitizer uses the signal present on the CLK IN connector as the Sample Clock timebase.

LORefClk ("LORefClk")

The digitizer uses the signal generated on the 100 MHz REF OUT terminal on the PXIe-5653 as the Sample Clock timebase. This value is supported only for the PXIe-5665.

PXI_STAR ("PXI_STAR")

The digitizer uses the signal present at the PXI star trigger line as the Sample Clock timebase.

DownconverterLO2Out ("DownconverterLO2Out")

The digitizer uses the signal exported from the LO2 OUT terminal on the PXIe-5606 as the Sample Clock timebase. This value is supported only for the PXIe-5668.
