is the new input impedance. Refer to Appendix A, Specifications, in the
device user manuals at
ni.com/manuals for the input impedance.
Equation 5-20 shows the relationship among all of the resistor values:
(5-20)
Special Considerations for Analog Output
When you use the circuit shown in Figure 5-19 for AO, the output
impedance changes. Thus, you must choose the values for R
1
and R
2
so that
the final output impedance value is as low as possible. Refer to
Appendix A, Specifications, in the device user manuals at
ni.com/manuals for device specifications. Figure 5-24 shows the
electrical circuit you use to calculate the output impedance.
