3-38. The FREQUENCY RESOLUTION, N switch determines the amount of time that the
counter’s main gate is open for a particular measurement when the Main Gate FF (refer to
Section IV) determines the gate time. Depending on the measurement, this time results in a
certain measurement resolution (e.g., frequency measurements), a number of intervals aver-
aged (e.g., T.1. AVG measurements), or a scaling factor by which the time base is divided (e. g.,
period measurements). Table 3-2 shows the setting of the RESOLUTION switch and the corre-
sponding time the main gate is open.
