dac-adc simulation

[p2aks]

Hi All, I'm trying to setup a basic simulation with LV. I have a DAC followed by an ADC.

I can see that there's a sampling rate for the DAC but not for the ADC. Both are DWDT. Is there a ADC object that I can also choose with the sampling rate?

Thanks

What do you mean by simulation using LabVIEW? LabVIEW is a programming language and not an electrical simulation software.

Please share what you have created so far and what you are trying to achieve and why

Thanks @santo_13

there isn't much to share as it's as simple as a DAC connected to a ADC.

Take a DWDT DAC, place a random array of value as input, connect the DAC to a DWDT ADC and you'll get the same values out.

The main question here is why does the DAC have the sample rate while the ADC doesn't?

Simulation may not be the best terminology but essentially I'm trying to setup a simple DAC->ADC and play with values, waveforms and sampling rates (on both ends).

Thanks

Please share the VI as it still not clear by the terms DAC and ADC in the scope of LabVIEW as those are hardware.

Thank you santo_13,

you can simply take the ADC block and see that there's no sample rate available.

What on earth are you talking about?

Please post your code so that we can work out what you are referring to. "DAC" and "ADC are general terms that could mean a lot of different things.

We have no way of knowing what you mean by "ADC block"....

You have to give examples of your attempt or you're not going to be able to elicit any help whatsoever because nobody will even remotely understand what you are asking.
