High Accuracy Calibrator runs up to 2.2GHz

The 5041 is a versatile, high performance calibrator capable of calibrating a wide range of oscilloscopes and timer/counters to 2.2GHz.

It provides a wide range of outputs for amplitude, frequency, period and bandwidth.

Amplitude calibration is achieved by a DC signal or 1kHz square-wave, ranging from 1mV to 200V (2V maximum for 50ohm loads).

Deviation up to +/-9.99% allows fine adjustment of amplitude and direct readout of error.

Accurate frequencies and time markers are generated from a temperature controlled quartz crystal oscillator.

The timing accuracy of 0.1ppm is suitable for virtually all oscilloscopes and timer counters.

The precise square-wave output also provides a fast rise edge of less than 300ps, which allows bandwidth testing up to 600MHz.

The 5041 is controlled via an external standard PC which provides an easy to operate virtual front panel. The straight forward control program is supplied as standard.

Communication with the unit is via RS232 (serial) or GPIB, which also allows simple integration with Time Electronics' EasyCal software.

For extended bandwidth determination and frequency response analysis the 2.2GHz option is available.

The ability to sweep the frequency output from 10MHz to 2.2GHz and adjust the amplitude from 400mV to 1.1V peak-peak ensures accurate analysis of oscilloscope input amplifier frequency response.

For calibration of oscilloscope current probes an external adapter is available.

This converts the 5041's amplitude output to current and covers the range 0.1 to 100mA peak-peak, 0.2% accuracy, DC or 1kHz.
