ps2000aCon.c increasing the sample rate

Post by drew7788 »

Working with the c code in ps2000aCon.c from
https://github.com/picotech/picosdk-c-e ... 2000aCon.c
Using the Streaming Mode I get data from the 2206B at a rate of about 50,000 samples per second, great data, but cannot get the rate any higher. We need 200,000 samples per second. I am working with ps2000aRunStreaming() and ps2000aGetTimebase() trying various parameters, but the rate will not increase. Any suggestions? The 2206 unit should go much faster?

I found the answer:
with downsampleRatio = 20; the sample rate is 50,000 per second, setting it to downsampleRatio = 5; the sample rate is 200,000 per second.

thanks for your great hardware.
