mydaq to generate 2 waveforms with lag

[mlokanat]

Hi,

I am wondering if it is possible to generate 2 waveforms with a phase lag with the NI myDAQ. From my experience, it seems like myDAQ is not able to give both outputs simultaneously.

Thanks.

Hello, 

According to the NI myDAQ user manual, which is linked below, both analog output channels have a dedicated digital-to-analog converter (DAC), so they can update simultaneously. This would mean that you should be able to generate 2 waveform with a phase lag.

In case you need it, I will link a forum below that provides an example for how to generate a phase lag between two analog output channels.

I hope this is the information that you are looking for!
