hi

i have a question in basic understanding of update rate sample rate samples per buffer and cycles per buffer.

i have DAQ 6343 and electronic circuit. 

i'm using AO0 for generation sine wave at these frequencies 10Hz, 100Hz, 500Hz, 1kHz, 3kHz this signal enters to electronic circuit.

and after conversion i must to measure two outputs of this circuit by AI2 and AI3.

from my understanding of tech spec of the daq analog output update rate is 900kS/s and analog input update rate is 500kS/s

as i understand if i have freq = 3kHz the maximum sample rate per buffer is 300 samples

and if i have freq = 10Hz i can generate this signal with 90000 samples per buffer?

for analog input the formula is the same?

that meaning of cycles per buffer?

which sample rate of AI i need to setup to measure data fast and accurately? 

thanks for answers
