The Tektronix DC504 is a 100 MHz, 5-digit frequency counter plug-in for the TM500 system.
The DC504A successor, introduced in 1984, has 6 digits.
Key Specifications
Frequency Range | 0 Hz (AC coupled: 10 Hz) to at least 80 MHz |
---|---|
Sensitivity (sine wave) | 20 mVRMS below 15 MHz, 35 mVRMS to 50 MHz, derated down to 175 mVRMS at 80 MHz |
Input impedance | 1 MΩ // 20 pF |
Trigger Level Range | −1.5 V to +1.5 V |
Maximum Frequency Resolution | kHz ranges: 0.1 Hz; 1 Hz and 10 Hz (7 digit resolution possible in overflow kHz position); MHz ranges: 100 Hz, 1 kHz (9 digit resolution possible in overflow kHz position) |
Maximum period resolution | ms ranges: 1 µs, 10 µs; s ranges: 10 ms, 1 ms, 0.1 ms |
Trigger Error | 0.5% of one cycle at min. trigger sensitivity |
Display Time | Variable ~0.1 s ... ~10 s and HOLD mode |
— Internal Standard Time Base (1 MHz) — | |
Stability | 0°C to +50°C after 30 min warm up: 1×10-5 |
Long Term Drift | 1×10-5 per month |
Accuracy | Adjustable to within 1×10-7 |
— Internal Time Base Option 1 (5 MHz) — | |
Stability | 0°C to +50°C after 30 min warm up: 1×10-7 |
Long Term Drift | 1×10-7 per month |
Accuracy | Adjustable to within 5×10-9 |
An internal "RPM" mode switch stretches gate times sixfold., giving a longest gate time of 1 minute with a display scaled in revolutions per minute.
