TClk Specifications

National Instruments TClk synchronization method and the NI-TClk driver are used to align the sample clocks on any number of SMC-based modules in a chassis. For more information about TClk synchronization, refer to the
NI-TClk Synchronization Help, which is located within the NI High-Speed Digitizers Help.
Specifications are valid for any number of modules installed in one NI PXI-1042 chassis.
All parameters set to identical values for each SMC-based module.
Sample Clock set to 250 MS/s and all filters are disabled.
For other configurations, including multichassis systems, contact NI Technical Support at
Note Although you can use NI-TClk to synchronize nonidentical modules, these
specifications apply only to synchronizing identical modules.
