1. These Math operations do not apply for Continuous Totalize or Timestamp measurements.
2. Allan Deviation is only calculated for Frequency and Period measurements. Allan Deviation calculation is available on both 53220A
and 53230A, it is only gap free on 53230A.
3. Limit Test only displays on instrument front panel. No hardware output signal is available.
4. Operating speeds are for a direct connection to a >2.5 GHz dual core CPU running Windows ® XP Pro SP3 or better with 4 GB RAM and
a 10/100/1000 LAN interface.
5. Throughput data based on gate time. Typical reading throughput assumes ASCII format, Auto level OFF with READ? SCPI command. For
improved reading throughput you should also consider setting (FORM:DATA REAL,64), (DISP OFF), and set fastest gate time available.
6. Maximum 53230A rates represent >= 20 MHz input signals with min gate times, no delays or holdoffs. Measurement rates for the
53210A & 53220A are limited by min gate time. Actual meas rates are limited by the repetition rate of the input being measured.
