Description
The Agilent 53131A frequency counter is our most popular two-channel counter with the ability
to make frequency, frequency ratio, time interval and pulse measurements. An optional RF channel
can be added to measure 3, 5, or 12.4 GHz.
The Agilent 53131A universal counter has the capability to do the job quickly and correctly from fast
signal processing to automated limit tests. The Agilent 53131A has frequency resolution of 10 digits
per second, 500 ps time interval resolution and a complete set of test and analysis features. The unit
comes with two 225 MHz channels, and you can choose an optional third channel that measures up to
3 GHz, 5 GHz, or 12.4 GHz.
PC Connectivity Software
IntuiLink, free PC connectivity software allows you to easily transfer measurement data and images
into familiar PC applications like Microsoft Office Excel and Word, with little or no programming.

Specifications
| Measurement Statistics |
| Available Statistics |
Mean, Minimum, Maximum, Standard Deviation |
| Number of Measurements |
2 to 1,000,000 Statistics may be collected on all measurements or on only those which are between the
limit bands. When the Limits function is used in conjunction with Statistics, N (number of measurements) refers to the number
of in-limit measurements. In general, measurement resolution will improve in proportion to N, up to the numerical processing limits
of the instrument. |
| Measurements |
Statistics may be collected for all measurements except Peak Volts and Totalize. |
| General Information |
| Save and Recall |
Up to 20 complete instrument setups may be saved and recalled later. These setups are retained when power is
removed from the counter. |
