Thanks for your reply.
All these readings will be transferred to PC through serial port. There is no processing on the data by controller. Processing will be done by the PC.
I shold be able to read analog inputs with this rate continuously for 200 ms. Then there is a gap of 2 sec. to transfer this data to PC. Then again samples are to be taken for 200 ms.
Like this it will continue.
Please let me know if this can be possible with MD or MX series ?
Thanks
: What do you want to do with the reading? To store them in data memory or to do computation? You said within 10ms to sample 100 samples - does it mean the sample to be taken evenly spaced timer interval, i.e. take a sample every 0.1ms, or you are taking a burst of 100 samples and the stop until the next 10ms slot is up? In any case, the lowest resolution for the clock pulse is 0.01s, which means you can trigger custom function every 10ms, provided the sampling time + computation time do not exceed 10ms. The ADC sampling time is quite fast, but the computation time is dependent on your complexity. I do think it is a bit challenging to try to achieve 2000 samples in 0.2s.
