MANUAL CHANGE INFORMATION

MODEL 451

At EIP we continually strive to keep up with the latest electronic developments by adding

circuit and component improvements to our instruments as soon as they are developed

and tested.

Sometimes, due to printing and shipment requirements, we cannot get these changes im-

mediately into printed manuals. As a result, your instrument may contain some or all of

the changes listed below.

SECTION 1

GENERAL INFORMATION & SPECIFICATIONS

1-1. DESCRIPTION

1-2, The MP Model 451. Microwave Pulse Counter auto-

matically and directly measures the frequency of pulse

modulated microwave signals between 300 MHz - 18 GHz.

Pulse widths can be as narrow as 100 nanoseconds, with

no minimum or maximum pulse repetition frequency limits.

1-3. The 451 also measures the frequency of CW micro-

wave signals. and carrier signals with FM modulation up

to 40 MHz peak-to-peak deviation at 10 MHz modulation

rates. No manual switching is required to measure CW or

pulsed frequencies — the counter will automatically mea-

sure either type of signal. Sensitivity is -10 dBm

to 10

GHz; -5 dBm to 18 GHz. A built-in limiter provides over-

load protection of up to 1 watt peak from 925 MHz - 18 GHz.

4. All front panel controls except SAMPLE RATE are

externally programmable, One input to the counter (Band

B) accepts signals over the range of 925 MHz - 18 GI-1z,

Option P2 provides a second input (Band A) to cover the

range of 300 MHz - 950 MHz.

1-5. The display on the 451 Counter provides a direct

readout of the measured frequency over the entire oper-

ating range of the counter with 10 kHz resolution. The

counter also includes automatic suppression of leading

zeros, except during a no signal input condition.

1-6. The frequency readout of the 451 is displayed in a

fixed position format that is conveniently sectionalized in

GHz and MHz. Gate times are 100 us and 1 ms.

1-7. For applications where less resolution is required,

pushbutton display blanking (RESOLUTION) is provided

to simplify the readout.

1-8. To assure trouble-free performance, the 451 Pulse

Counter is completely solid-state. For ease of repair and

maintenance, the major portion of the counter circuitry is

contained on plug-in printed circuit boards or in easily

removed modules. Special test points allow monitoring of

critical circuit functions,

1-9. INSTRUMENT IDENTIFICATION

1-10. The 451 Pulse Counter is identified by two number

sets: the Model and Configuration Control Number (e .g:

451

CCN1001), and a specific Serial Number (e.g: 12345).

Both sets of numbers should be mentioned in any corre-

spondence or parts orders relating to the counter,
