Description of the Microwave Frequency
Counter
The Agilent 53150A, 53151A, and 53152A Microwave Frequency Counters
are capable of measuring frequencies from 10 Hz to 125 MHz on Channel 1
and from 50 MHz to 20 GHz (53150A), 26.5 GHz (53151A), and 46 GHz
(53152A) on Channel 2. These frequency counters are also capable of
measuring power on Channel 2 (in the same frequency ranges). All three
Counters have a maximum frequency resolution of 1 Hz.
The Agilent 53150A/151A/152A provides GPIB and RS-232 serial
interfaces and are suitable for bench-top and ATE operation.
The basic measurement functions of the Agilent 53150A/151A/152A
include Frequency, Relative Frequency, Frequency Offset, and Power
(including Power Offset and Relative Power). All of these features are
accessible from the front panel and over the GPIB and RS-232 interfaces.
The Agilent 53150A/151A/152A includes the following additional
measurement functions and features that are designed specifically for
manufacturing and service applications:
1, 2, 5, and 10 MHz external reference capability
Optional high-stability oven oscillator for high-accuracy needs and
lengthened calibration cycles
Frequency and power offset capabilities for relative measurements
SCPI programming capability
Battery and dc input option for operation in locations where AC
power is unavailable
Optional soft carrying case for safe transportation and mobile use
Programmable control is performed via an GPIB or an RS-232 serial
interface. The GPIB and RS-232C ports are standard for the Agilent
53150A, 53151A, and 53152A.
