Hi
The 5371 / 5372 are never going to be as popular as the 5370 in terms of
people needing support. They just aren't that common.
Getting binary dumps into one of the software packages would be very nice. The
rest of the stuff is much further down my list. Without a binary dump, you
can't

I don't understand why you need something like the 537x counters for
long-term measurement.
The 200 ps resolution of the 5372A gives you a noise floor of about
5e-14 @ 4000 seconds. Something like the Pictic II gives you better
resolution at a fraction of the size, heat, noise, and power.
My 5372A is firmware version 3127 [12 July 1991] e/w option 040. Serial
number prefix is 3301.

The Frequency vs. Time view is lovely.
The 5372A does calculate ADEV but does not provide ADEV plots.
Since they don't specify, I'm assuming that it uses the original,
non-overlapping calculation. True?
Well... it does care

To All who have contributed,
Your answers have been very informative, and I appreciate the time the people
have taken to answer my initial request on the differences between the HP 5372A
and 5370A T.I. Counters/Analyzers.
The bottom line I get out of this thread is that both are useful to
I second that 1000%
Now to figure out whats wrong in the two dead 5370Bs. Glad it is them
and not the 72A !

Hi everyone.
I own an HP 5370A. I do GPIB and Labview, KE5FX Utilities, DF6JB's Plotter,
spreadsheets etc. Always looking to improve my setup...
Here is a simple question: Why should I try to get an HP 5372A (or 5371A)? What
are the benefits over the 5370A? Worth spending?
Thanks in advance,

Faster measurements (but not quite as precise) and zero dead-time
measurements.

If you've got one, it can be hard to justify buying the other unless you
have some very specific requirements. There's a lot of overlap between
them. I have a 5372A and have wondered if it's worth getting a 5370(A
or B). So far, the answer for me is no.
Here are a few things that I've used
Hi Ed,
excellent email. You raise the SNR of this forum!
I have tried to measure the CW-12 output myself with phase noise and Allan
Deviation equipment, and the constant cycle jumps prevent these from giving
sensible results. Both PN and ADEV plots look awful, many orders of
magnitude

We really do need a simple app to extend the 5371 and 5372 for longer time

The 5370A/B is nice because its one-shot resolution is better than any other
HP/Agilent counter, prior to the release of the 532xxA models a few months
ago. Also,
