Transmission Line Effects
Transmission line effects can degrade the signal and cause measurement
errors. Use twisted-pair wires to connect external signals to the device to
improve impedance matching and signal integrity. The NI 660x provide
onboard series termination to reduce signal reflections when it drives an
output.
For reflection problems that occur when the device drives the signal,
use parallel AC termination at the destination. When using a National
Instruments SH68-68-D1 cable, the recommended values for R
P
and C
P
are
68 W and 150 pF, respectively.
