Analog Input Timing Options

M Series devices use ai/SampleClock and ai/ConvertClock to perform 
interval sampling. As Figure 4-13 shows, ai/SampleClock controls the 
sample period, which is determined by the following equation:

1/Sample Period = Sample Rate

Figure 4-13.  

Interval Sampling

ai/ConvertClock controls the Convert Period, which is determined by the 
following equation:

1/Convert Period = Convert Rate
