NI PCI-5411/5431
The NI PCI-5411 is a 40 MS/s arbitrary waveform generator. The
NI PCI-5431 is a video signal generator for the PCI platform. The
NI PCI-5411/5431 has four connectors—three SMB connectors and one
50-pin digital connector, as shown in Figure 11. Signal descriptions are listed
in Table 6.

Function
ARB
Output
Provides the waveform output.
SYNC
Output
Provides a TTL-level output of the waveform
being generated at the ARB OUT connector.
PLL IN
Input
Accepts a PLL Reference clock from an
external source and can frequency lock the
NI PCI-5411/5431 Sample clock timebase to the
external Reference clock.
