StopbandThe filter significantly attenuates all signals above the stopband
frequency. The primary goal of the filter is to prevent aliasing.
Therefore, the stopband frequency scales precisely with the data
rate. The stopband rejection is the minimum amount of attenuation
applied by the filter to all signals with frequencies within the
stopband.
Alias-Free BandwidthAny signal that appears in the alias-free bandwidth of the NI 9234
is not an aliased artifact of signals at a higher frequency. The
alias-free bandwidth is defined by the ability of the filter to reject
frequencies above the stopband frequency, and it is equal to the
data rate minus the stopband frequency.
