Feature-rich Tools for Precision Measurements
FCA3000 and FCA3100 Overview
Offering up to 20 GHz measurements, the Tektronix FCA3000 and FCA3100 Series timer/counter/analyzers pack many different functions into one feature-rich instrument. With unprecedented resolution, you can capture very small frequency and time changes. And with the industry's most comprehensive analysis modes, including measurement statistics, histograms, and trend plots, you have the tools you need to quickly and accurately analyze your signal.
MCA3000 Overview
Offering up to 40 GHz measurements, the Tektronix MCA3000 Series microwave counter/analyzers pack many different functions into one feature-rich instrument. The integrated power meter and two additional timer/counter channels offer you even more test functionality than other microwave counters on the market. With unprecedented resolution, you can capture very small frequency and time changes. And with the industry's most comprehensive analysis modes, including measurement statistics, histograms, and trend plots, you have the tools you need to quickly and accurately analyze your signal.
| FEATURES |
BENEFITS |
12 digit/s frequency resolution
|
See small changes in frequency with industry-leading frequency resolution. |
Down to 50 ps time resolution (FCA3000/FCA3100)
100 ps time resolution (MCA3000) |
Accurately capture signal details with industry-leading single-shot time resolution. |
| Multi-parameter display |
Read critical auxiliary measurement values displayed with your main frequency, time, or phase measurement to quickly asses your device's performance. |
| Trend Plot mode |
Plot measurement trends and graphically identify the extent of drift and intermittent events. |
| Histogram mode |
Discover stability or noise problems by viewing results as a histogram. |
| Statistics mode |
View multiple statistical values such as average, min, max, standard and Allan deviation to see how your signal is changing. |
| Optional TimeView™ software |
Transform your timer/counter into a modulation domain analyzer and see frequency changes over time to truly characterize your device's performance. |
| USB and GPIB ports |
Easily connect to a personal computer for further analysis or into an ATE system with the back-panel USB and GPIB ports; an emulation mode for legacy timer/counters further simplifies integrating into an existing ATE system. |
