Counter uncertainty on PCI 62221

Hello,

 

I would like to calculate the uncertainty of a measurement using a counter (pulseweight measurement or period).

I'm reading N samples and sum them at the end to know my total test time. I supposed in this way my uncertainty must be high (Uncertainty times N samples ...).

This is why I'm looking for several information I didn't find on the NI website.

 

1) The counter resolution is 32 bits, but what is its range voltage input ? I would like to know the minimum timing change detectable.

2) How can I know the accuracy in % of the measure time ? 50 ppm on a 80 MHz clock ok, but there must have a relation with the measured time too no ?

3) What is the clock deviation in time ? (calibration will be necessary but it's to have an idea)

4) I saw a numeric filter in my channel settings too, but I don't know how it's supposed to work and what can be the impact on the uncertainty of my measurement ?

 

Thank you all in advance Smiley Happy
