Example Code

niScope Single Channel Stream to Memory Maximum Transfer Rate

Code and Documents

Attachment

This example shows the maximum speed at which data can be fetched from a digitizer to host memory.  This helps identify the maximum transfer speed, which is usually limited by the bus (PCI, PCI Express) or the MXI link if one is being used.

This example acquires data into onboard memory, and then reads it over and over again as fast as possible.  The Data Transfer Rate has no relationship to the actual sample rate at which the data was acquired.
