The incoming analog signal on each channel is conditioned, buffered, and then sampled by a 24-bit Delta-Sigma channel provides an independent signal path and ADC, enabling you to sample all four channels simultaneously.

The filters discriminate between signals based on the frequency range, or bandwidth, of the signal. The three important bandwidths to consider are the passband, the stopband, and the alias-free NI 9227 represents signals within the passband, as quantified primarily by passband flatness and phase nonlinearity.

9 All signals that appear in the alias-free bandwidth are either unaliased signals or signals that have been filtered by at least the amount of the stopband signals within the passband have frequency-dependent gain or attenuation. The small amount of variation in gain with respect to frequency is called the passband flatness. The digital filters of the NI 9227 adjust the frequency range of the passband to match the data rate. Therefore, the amount of gain or attenuation at a given frequency depends on the data rate.

10 Figure 7 shows typical passband flatness for the NI | |NI 9227 Operating Instructions and SpecificationsFigure 7. Typical Passband Flatness for the NI 9227 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 Rate (Hz) (dB)NI 9227 Operating Instructions and Specifications | national instruments |13 Alias-Free BandwidthAny signal that appears in the alias-free bandwidth of the NI 9227 is not an aliased artifact of signals at a higher frequency.
