[time-nuts] HP 5335A Option 040
Hi, there exist three manuals, 5335-90005 - Serial #2024A and below, 1980, preliminary pdf manual on agilent.com 5335-90021 - Serial #2224A and below, 1983, pdf from Artekmedia, very good scan for $7.50 5335-90044 - Serial #3154A and below, 1994, very good reprint from manualsplus for about 70$ If you don't have the latest device, Artek Media document is absolutely sufficient for description of Opt. 040, i.e. HPIB instruction set and schematics. (SW is different, also input amplifier / front end A12 and amplifier support A11) Btw.: I've got a nice 5335A with ser no 2820, Opt. 10, 30 , 40 (10811 oven, 1,3Ghz C-input - latest divide-by-64 version, and full front end remote steering). I've found out, that it definitely resolves 1ns in Time and Freq. measurements, in contrast to 2ns as stated by all the latest specs. in the manuals and all the HP catalogues. Gordon, and other 5335 owners - would you please check your instruments on that, to find out if firmware has changed later on, or simply if the specification is wrong? I get 11 significant digits over the bus and on the display, if I measure for >100s. I'd expect 12 digits for >1000s at least over the bus, as 14 digits are reserved for the mantissa (incl. sign and decimal point) but nothing happens. Anybody got an idea, how to get more digits, perhaps with undocumented commands? This counter potentially delivers nearly unlimited resolution, as the overflow is counted in many additional bytes, which I would like to read out.

The manual on the Agilent site (preliminary) doesn't mention 040, but the later manual (available from Artekmedia) does.
