High Resolution Time and
Frequency Measurement
The advent of high-speed devices
and sophisticated systems has
increased the need to make very
rapid measurements in real time. In
addition, requirements for
increased production throughput
create the need for rapid results
analysis as well as easy-to-read
data output formats. The Racal
Instruments Model 2351 meets
these challenges by offering highspeed
data capture performance,
sophisticated analysis capability
and a broad selection of formats for
data output.
Continuous Precision Measurement
Fast output of high-speed measurement
data has been one of the most difficult
tasks for universal counter-timers to
provide due to the instruments dead
time between measurements.
Measurement cycles can be missed
while the instrument is processing,
formatting and loading each individual
measurement for display.
Real-time characterizations can be
made of swept or chirped radar signals,
oscillator stability, and high-speed ECL
pulses for verification of signal integrity
high-speed data transfers.
The 2351 can store 8k events per
channel. Each data point is timestamped,
so real-time sequences of
events are captured for analysis. If
events occur at a rate greater than they
can be stamped, the 2351records the
number of events and the amount of
elapsed time between each measured
edge.
