FAQ:
What is the difference in sampling rate between continuous and interleaved datalogging on the N6705?
Both interleaved and continuous and interleaved modes sample at a rate of 50 kHz. The difference is that continuous mode samples at 50 kHz continuously, whereas interleaved mode only samples for fixed duration as shown in the figures.
For example, when the sample period is set to 1 second in continuous mode, the sampling rate is 50 kHz for the entire period for both voltage and current. The minimum, maximum, and average values are returned for the entire sample period.
When the sample period is set to 1 second In interleaved mode, only the first 250 samples (@ 50 kHz) are returned for the voltage, followed by 250 samples (@ 50 kHz) for the current. No measurement data is collected for the remainder of the period. The values returned represent the average values of the 250 voltage samples and the 250 current samples.
Note that the N675xA, N674xA, and N673xA power modules only support interleaved mode. N676xA and N678xA power modules only support continuous mode. If you are data logging with two module, one that supports interleaved mode and the other that supports continuous mode, the data logging reverts to interleaved mode for both modules.
