I have a question about the sampling rate, especially for the lock-in (software) from maths channel.
I'm currently working on a setup on which the idea is to compare multiple types of sensors/photodetectors for single photon detection.
By using a modulated source of light with a defined frequency (a low one <1kHz) and a lock-in with the same frequency, I should be able to get rid of the dark counts and only observe real photons on the scope. I use the analog discovery 3 for this setup and I wanted to know if the device is fast enough to sample this, because each pulse is on the nanosecond scale.

Hi everybody,
I have a question about the sampling rate, especially for the lock-in (software) from maths channel.

Thank you for your answers and have a nice day.
