Highlights

  • Two 350 MHz input channels, plus optional third channel (6 GHz or 15 GHz)
  • 12 digits/second resolution, 20 psec time interval resolution
  • Built-in math analysis and color, graphical display (trend and histogram)
  • Continuous, gap-free measurements and timestamps for basic modulation domain analysis
  • LXI-C/LAN, USB, GPIB
  • A BenchVue software makes it simple to connect, control instruments, and automate test sequences

 

The Keysight 53230A universal frequency counter/timer serves all your frequency and time interval measurement needs. In addition to the typical frequency and time interval measurements, continuous/gap-free measurements are available for basic modulation domain analysis. The burst measurement software is available. An optional microwave channel can be added to measure 6 or 15 GHz.
