HP 5335A 200 MHz Universal Counter


	HP 5335A 200 MHz Universal Counter

Product Summary

The HP 5335A counter offers high-resolution measurement power, standard HP-IB interfacing, and many features for user convenience. Manual or automatic triggering allows you to set triggers, or have the 5335A set them for you. With the press of a button, perform a variety of measurements and display A and B channel trigger levels and gate time. Built-in statistical characterization and mathematical functions offer better understanding of measured parameters.

A variety of options increase the performance and functionality of the HP 5335A. A 1.3 GHz C channel extends the frequency range for navigations and communications applications. A high-stability oven oscillator can be added for higher accuracy in demanding environments, and an add-on DC digital voltmeter lets you perform DC voltage measurements.

Product Features

Selectable resolution and measurement time
Full complement of measurements, math and statistics functions
External arming increases measurement capability
Full function ratio measurements
100 ps time interval average resolution, 2 ns single-shot resolution
200 MHz (Channel A) and 100 MHz (Channel B) input channels, Optional 1.3 GHz (Channel C)
Proven reliability and excellent RFI protection

Selectable Resolution

Digital gate time selection makes it easy to trade off resolution and measurement time. Resolution is 9 digits per second of gate time to 100 MHz for period and 200 MHz for frequency.

Measurements

In addition to standard universal counter measurements of frequency, period, time interval, ratio and totalize, the HP 5335A provides pulse width, rise and fall time, duty cycle, slew rate, relative phase, and inverse time interval.

External Arming

External arming/gating allows synchronization with external events. This feature lets you easily make pulsed RF communications and radar signal measurements to 1.3 GHz.

Full Function

Two ratio functions of A/B and C/A use the full bandwidth, sensitivity, and input signal conditioning controls of the A, B, and C input channels.

STATISTICS AND MATH


Sample Size: Selectable between either N = 100 or N = 1000 samples.
Std. Dev.: Displays a standard deviation of selected sample size.

Mean: Displays mean estimate of selected sample size.

Smooth: Performs a weighted running average and truncates unstable least significiant digits from display.

NOTE: Statistics functions performed after Math functions.

Math: All measurement functions with exception of GATE TIME, TOTALIZE in scale mode, and TRIG LVL, may be operated upon by Math functions. Offset, Normalize, and Scale may be used independently or together.



GENERAL


Function Memory: Front panel settings for Math, Statistics, Range Hold, Ext. Arm  Enable, Gate, and Cycle stored for current function and immediately preceding function. GATE TIME and TRIG LVL do not affect memory.
