Getting Started
PXI_CLK10, PXIe_CLK100 and PXIe_SYNC100 have the default timing
relationship described in Figure 1-6.
Figure 1-6.
System Reference Clock Default Behavior
To synchronize the system to an external clock, you can drive PXI_CLK10
from an external source through the PXI_CLK10_IN pin on the System
Timing Slot. Refer to Table B-7,
XP4 Connector Pinout for the System
, for the pinout. When a 10 MHz clock is detected on this pin,
the backplane automatically phase-locks the PXI_CLK10, PXIe_CLK100,
and PXIe_SYNC100 signals to this external clock and distributes these
signals to the slots (refer to Figure 1-5 for the distribution of PXI_CLK10,
PXIe_CLK100 and PXIe_SYNC100). Refer to Appendix A,
for the specification information for an external clock provided on the
PXI_CLK10_IN pin of the system timing slot.
You also can drive a 10 MHz clock on the 10 MHz REF IN connector on the
rear of the chassis. When a 10 MHz clock is detected on this connector, the
backplane automatically phase-locks the PXI_CLK10, PXIe_CLK100, and
PXIe_SYNC100 signals to this external clock and distributes these signals
to the slots (refer to Figure 1-5 for the distribution of PXI_CLK10,
PXIe_CLK100 and PXIe_SYNC100). Refer to Appendix A,
for the specification information for an external clock provided on the 10
MHz REF IN connector on the rear panel of the chassis.
