Across all three scenarios, the Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) demonstrates flexible, high-speed data acquisition at 40 MHz—whether through multi-sample accumulation, multi-channel bursts, or direct CPU reads.

By leveraging immediate re-triggering, advanced sampling modes, and efficient triggering strategies, you can optimize throughput and system bandwidth.

Prioritizing channels, enabling accumulator burst mode, and using fast CPU access or periodic triggers ensures continuous, reliable data capture tailored to your application’s needs.
