Frequency Resolution and
Maximum Range at 10MHz
Figure 3.45 Frequency Output Latency Values
A new frequency output value will not take effect until the end of the current cycle. There are two exceptions to this
rule. If the output is disabled, the new (non-zero) output will start immediately after
t
fout
. Also, for a new output value
of zero, the output is disabled immediately and not at the end of the current cycle.
A disabled output is a logic zero by default unless the invert keyword is used in the I/O object declaration. The
resolution and range for this object scale with FT Smart Transceiver input clock rate, for example: resolution
from 0.1 to 12.8 µs and range from 6.55 to 839 ms at 40MHz.
