Information
Introduction
Your PM 6680B/6681 Timer/Counter is designed to bring you a
new dimension to bench-top and system counting. It offers
significantly increased performance compared to traditional
Timer/Counters. The PM 6680B offers the following advantages:
- 10 digits of frequency resolution per second and 250 ps
resolution, as a result of high-resolution interpolating
reciprocal counting
- A 1.3, a 2.7, a 4.2 and a 4.5 GHz input frequency option
In addition to the above the PM 6681 offers the following
advantages:
- 11 digits of frequency resolution per second and 50 ps
resolution, as a result of 100 MHz dock in addition to
interpolating
- Integrated high performance GPIB Interface using SCPi commands
- Timestamping; PM 6681 records exactly when a measurement
is made
- A high measurement rate of up to 8500 readings/s to
internal memory
New powerful and versatile functions
A unique performance feature In your new instrument is the
complete arming possibilities, which allow you to
characterize virtually any type of complex signal concerning
frequency and time.
For instance, you can insert a delay between the external
arming condition and the actual arming of the Counter. You
can set this delay to a preset time or a number of trigger
events, whereby you can for example measure the width of
pulse No. 17 after the arming pulse. Read more about Arming
in Chapter 5, ‘Measurement Control’.
The Counter has a multitude of measuring functions such as
phase, duty factor, rise/fall-time, peak voltage, and six
totalizing modes. The six totalizing modes include
simultaneous up/down count (TOT A-B) and the ability to
totalize during a preset time after a manual start. The PM
6680B can perform all measuring functions except rise/fall
time, on both A and B inputs and all functions except phase,
rise/fall time and peak voltage on the E input (arming input).

Information
Programming Manual
You should use this ProgrammingManual
together
with
thePM6680B/1/5 Operators Manual.
That manual contains specificationsfor the Counter and
explanations of
the possibilities and limitations of the
different measuring functions.
Sections
The chapters in this manual are di-
vided into three sections aimed at dif-
ferent levels of reader knowledge.
The ‘General’ Section, which can be
disregarded by the users who know
the IEEE-488 and SCPI standards:
– Chapter 2 Bus Commands for the
Benchtop User gives bus com-
mands for the front panel keys.
– Chapter 3 Introduction to SCPI
explains syntax data formats, sta-
tus reporting, etc.
The Practical Section of this manualcontains:
– Chapter 4, Programming Exam-
ples, with examples of typical pro-
grams for a wide variety of appli-
cations. These programs are writ-
ten in GW-basic and C.
This Manual
The ‘Programmers Reference’ Sec-
tion of this manual contains:
– Chapter 5, Instrument Model ex-
plains how the instrument looks
from the bus. This instrument is
not quite the same as the one used
from the front panel.
– Chapter 6 Using the Subsystems
explains more about each subsys-
tem.
– Chapter 7, How to Measure Fast
is a set of measuring situations
which the user is often confronted
with when programming a Counter.
This chapter also contains infor-
mation about how to use the more
complex subsystem.
– Chapter 8, Error Messages con-
tains a list of all error messages
that can be generated during bus
control.
– Chapter 9, Command Reference,
This chapter gives complete infor-
mation on all commands. The sub-
systems and commands are sorted
alphabetically.
