NI 9237 Example Data Rates
Example data rates use a 12.8 MHz clock source.
Offset Cal Enable <3..0>
Controls the offset calibration mode. Offset calibration mode disconnects both signal input pins and
forces the channel inputs to zero volts, enabling measurement of the channel’s offset voltage. A
logic 1 in any bit enables offset calibration for the respective channel, while a logic 0 disables it.
Clock Divisor
The NI 9237 divides the clock source (internal or external) by this value and uses it as the
converters’ oversample clock. The data rate is equal to 1/256 times this oversample clock frequency.
The final data rate must be between 391 kS/s and 52.734 kS/s. This means that while all values from
1 to 31 are within the specified operating range when using the 12.8 MHz internal clock source, for
external clock sources of more than 13.5 MHz or less than 3.1 MHz the valid divisors are limited to
those that provide data rates within the specified range.
