Re: [TekScopes] Fast Rise/Fall Time Pulser
Mine arrived today. Alas, it uses a USB B connector instead of a more common USB mini or micro; I gotta get a cable.
Mine has the comparator IC marked only, "AJK BAA." Yes, this is an Analog Devices

Re: Frequency calibration?
What's wrong with my Rubidium reference that would make me choose a GPS disciplined? Costed me $75 on EPay, but still needs a power supply, case and diastribution amplifiers, yet another project to

Re: Frequency calibration?
I have the same equipment and don't need insane accuracy (1Hz in 100MHz is more the sufficient - 10e-8). I will put the 1PPS signal into the A input, the 10MHz from the ref osc out on the back into

Re: Frequency calibration?
Two questions for the original poster: How accurate do you need (want) to be? and what are you using the counter for?

Fast Rise/Fall Time Pulser
There has been discussion recently about generating fast rise/fall time pulses by various means. Here is a link to a Leo Bodnar device that will provide <40 ps rise/fall time, 50% duty cycle, 10 MHz

Re: Frequency calibration?
By far and away the best choice is going to be a GPS disciplined oscillator
such as an HP 3801A or a Thunderbolt. A good GPSDO should be good to at
least 1x10^-10
? (1ppb) over the course of a day.

Re: Schematics for HP 8558B SA
As Dave from Artek says, it is helpful to know the serial number of the unit. What you most likely want is the "Operation and Service Manual" for this unit. The part number for the manual is

Re: Frequency calibration?
I can't recall where, but someone posted a comment to the effect that the PPS output of their GPS unit had significant (~20 nS) jitter.
I'd suggest feeding the output of the reference to be checked
