Analog Output
NI 6238/6239 devices have two AO channels controlled by a single clock
and capable of waveform generation. Figure 5-1 shows the analog current
output circuitry of NI 6238 and NI 6239 devices.

DACs
Digital-to-analog converters (DACs) convert digital codes to analog
voltages.
V-I Converter
The V-I converter converts voltage (V) into current (I).
AO FIFO
The AO FIFO enables analog output waveform generation. It is a
first-in-first-out (FIFO) memory buffer between the computer and the
