9E-1-4. The 5305B extends the frequency measuring
capability of the 5300 Measuring System to the UHF range.
The counter features burst or CW measurements to 1300 MHz,
separate channels to cover 90 MHz-1300 MHz and 50 Hz to
100 MHz both with 20 mV rms sensitivity, high resolution
mode for fast tone measurements, automatic gain control for
both channels or manual attenuator control for the high
frequency channel, fuse protected high frequency channel,
and probe power plus accessory preamp for high sensitivity
applications. When operating in the high resolution mode, a
phaselocked multiplier gives 1000 times improvement in the

9E-3-2. This section covers operating information for the
5305B including a description of controls, indicators, and
connectors, resolution, input levels, and operating
rocedures for frequency measurements and self check.
9E-3-3. OPERATING CHARACTERISTICS
9E-3-4. The 5305B Counter performs frequency measurements by means of two separate input channels. These
channels provide a combination of low frequency
measurements and high-sensitivity, high frequency
measurements. Measurement capability is applicable to all
frequencies in the VHF and mobile communication bands in
addition to a significant portion of the UHF band. The
10855A Preamplifier can be used to boost the UHF inpu
sensitivit
9E-3-5. Input channels
9E-3-6. Two input channels are provided, Channel A - 90
MHz to 1300 MHz and Channel B - 50 Hz to 100 MHz.
Both channels have 20 mV rms sensitivit
9E-3-7. Channel A prescales the input frequency by 16 and
can be used to measure CW or burst signals. Input coupling
is ac. An AGC circuit is included to give a dynamic range
of >47 dB. An internal fuse, located inside the input jack,
rotects circuitry from overloads greater than 5V rms. Note
that a blown fuse may not prevent the counter from
measuring high-frequency inputs. In this instance, the
counter’s circuitry is no longer protected,ie.,as it would be
at lower frequencies by a good open circuit. If the fuse
blows, a replacement fuse is supplied with the instrument.

9E-3-8. The frequency range of Channel B depends on the
mode of operation - normal or high resolution. In the
normal mode, Channel B covers 50 Hz to 100 MHz. With
high-resolution selected, Channel B covers 50 Hz to 10
kHz. The high resolution mode uses a phase-locked
multiplier to increase resolution by a factor of 1000. Input
impedance is 1 Megohm shunted by less than 40 pF. A 10
to 1 divider probe can be used to increase the input
impedance to 10 Me
9E-3-9. RESOLUTION
9E-3-10. The 5305B has a RESOLUTION switch which
determines the least-significant digit (LSD) dis

RESOLUTION switch to 1 kHz places the "3" in the LSD.
Setting the switch to 10 Hz, places the "5" in the LSD.

of Operation
9E-4-1 INTRODUCTION.
9E-4-2. The 5305B consists of two assemblies, Logic
Board A1 and 1300 MHz amplifier A2. Two input channels for frequency measurements are provided, Channel A
accepts signals from 90 MHz to 1300 MHz and Channel B
is used for signal inputs up to 100 MHz. Channel B signals
are connected directly to the A1 Logic Board. Channel A
signal inputs are routed to the 1300 MHz Amplifier A2.
The followin
9E-4-3. A1 LOGIC BOARD
9E-4-4. A1 consists of the following major circuits;
High-Impedance Amplifier, Counting, Frequency
Multiplier, and 1300 MHz. Paragraphs 9E-4-5 through
9E-4-30 describe the theor
9E-4-3 High Impedance Amplifier
9E-4-6.The high-impedance amplifier consists o
three main stages: (1) An input buffer (Q1, Q2) that
provides high input impedance at unity gain. (2) An AGC
(automatic gain control) amplifier (U6B and C) to generate
the required gain to maintain a relatively constant output
with a wide range of inputs. This assures that the counter
will read the proper frequency in the presence of noisy
input signals. (3) A Schmitttrigger U6A and driver U16 to
convert noisy, slowchanging signals to "clean" square
waves with fast rise times to drive the countin
9E-4-7. INPUT CIRCUIT OPERATION. The signal
enters the amplifier through dc blocking capacitor C4,
which, along with C7, R10, R7, CR4, and CR2, protects
against large ac peaks at low frequencies. At high
frequencies, R7 and CR4 and CR2 provide the input
protection for the unity-gain boot-strapped sourcefollower
circuit Q1 and Q2.
9E-4-8. AGC OPERATION. For small signal levels
(below ≈10 mV rms), the output of U8 pin 1 is <.6V (with
no input signal, the voltage is about -3.5V). This causes
Q5 and Q4 to turn off which results in Q3 turnin

of operation for these circuits.
circuits.
on.
The low source-to-drain impedance (50Ω) shunts resistor
R12. The signal passes unattenuated through Q3 to amplifier
U6C. The output at U6B(6) feeds the signal through R33 and
C25. The signal is converted to dc by CR9, C24 and R35. As
the input signal level increases, the AGC voltage at U8(1)
increases above .6 volts to a maximum of ≈ +2 volts. Both
CR5 and CR7 begin to conduct and their resistance drops
rapidly to a few ohms, shunting most of the signal to ground.
At the same time, Q5 begins to conduct and causes Q4 to
conduct.
9E-4-9. When Q4 is full on, it generates more than -5 volts
gate-to-source voltage on Q3. This tends to "pinch off" Q3,
thereby raising its resistance. With R6 as the main signal
path, only a small portion (10 to 20 mV p-p) of a large input
signal (10V p-p) drives amplifier U6C. This prevents
saturation of U6, and prevents the degradation in signal-tonoise ratio that saturation would cause. Thus Schmitt trigger
U6A is triggered only by the largest signal at the input and
not noise.
9E-4-10. DC FEEDBACK AND DUTY CYCLE CONTROL. The first two amplifier stages of U6 have a fixed
voltage gain of typically 30 to 40 with a bandwidth of 100
MHz. U8 monitors the output of U6B and regulates the dc
level at about 1.3V, regardless of temperature and device
differences.
9E-4-11. SCHMITT TRIGGER AND OUTPUT. The
third stage of U6 is used as a Schmitt trigger.This circuit
shapes the .6V p-p sine wave at its input into a .8V p-p
square wave. It will respond to signals less than 0.3V p-p in
amplitude and thus rejects noise on the input signal. U16
amplifies the square wave and converts it to TTL levels to
drive U22.
9E-4-12. Countin
9E-4-13. The following paragraphs describe the counting
circuits that are common to all input modes. The RANGE
switch enables one of four NOR gates to pass its respective
signal to the Main Gate U13A and to the arm flip-flop,
U17B. The signals are (1) Channel A divided by 16, U12C;
(2) Channel B, U12A; (3) Channel B times 1000(PLO),
U12B; and (4) 10 MHz clock (check), U13B.

of Operation
Theor
9E-4-14. In the Channel B mode, for example, the
operation is as follows. Once the sample rate runs down
and the INHIBIT line returns high, the next signal pulse
from U12A sets U17B. The High output from U16D(13)
arms the counter by allowing the CLOSE line to go
High. The arm signal also passes the 10 MHz clock
signal to the mainframe through U10A and U10B. The
mainframe responds by clocking U17A with a LOG 0
pulse, which sets the Q output Low and opens the Main
Gate. The signal now passes to the decade counter, U14,
where it is divided by 10. The data output of U14 feeds
U13C, which provides a 60/40 duty cycle of the divided
signal to level translators Q9 and Q10. The signal then
enters the main frame's countin
assembly on the F1 line.
OTE
U6, 12. 13, 14, 17, and 25 are ECL devices
that are connected to the +5V supply. They set
the logic states to ≈ 4.3V for a High and ≈
3.2V for a Low.
9E-4-15. The measurement ends when the count in the
mainframe's Time Base decade reaches its capacity.
The decade then outputs a TB OUT pulse. The LOG
pulse immediately following sets the MGFF and
disables the Main Gate, U13A. During the measurement, the three-state data latch, U5, does not accept
any new input data. Its output, however, is enabled
periodically by the Low pulse from U4(15). Because of
the counting decade in the 5305B, U4 alters the Digital
Address codes so the digits are correctly placed in the
display. Therefore, the Σ4 output goes Low for one
count out of eight and switches the latch from its high
impedance state to the low impedance (active) state.
This occurs for each scan of the display. When the
measurement ends, the XFER line enables U4 and new data
enters the latch with the next clock pulse from U11(4).
9E-4-16. Frequency Multiplier
9E-4-17. The Frequency Multiplier circuit contains a PLO
(Phase-Locked Oscillator) that is used when the RANGE
switch is set to the B 10 kHz MAX position. The PLO
multiplies the Channel B input frequency by 1000. which
means the display's count will be 1000 times higher than
normal. Thus, for a 51.234 Hz input and a 1 sec gate time,
the counter's display would be 00.051 kHz without the PLO
and 51.234 Hz with the PLO. The readout is corrected by
changing the annunciator from MHz to kHz or kHz to Hz.
The phase detector block diagram is shown in Figure 9E4-1.
9E-4-18. PHASE DETECTOR. The signal to be measured passes through the channel B amplifier and is applied
to pin 1 of U22, a phase/frequency detector. The other input
to U22 is the voltage-controlled oscillator's signal, which
has been divided by 1000 in U19, 20, and 21. U22 is a TTL
device with negative edge-triggered inputs and active low
outputs. Under normal, phase-locked operation, the negative
edges at the inputs occur at the same moment, and the two
outputs are hi

9E-4-19. Under these conditions, the two diodes following
the detector (also part of U22) are back-biased and pass no
current. Thus, no current enters the integrator amplifier,
U23, and its output volta
e remains fixed.

of Operation
9E-4-20. Assume, however, the channel B frequency
increases. This causes the negative pulses at U22(1) to
arrive a little earlier than before, arriving ahead of the
edges at pin 3. When an edge arrives at pin 1, the UP
output goes active low and stays low until the edge at pin 3
arrives. The UP output, then, begins generating active low
pulses. They are inverted into positive pulses that forward
bias CRB Current flows through CRB and RBI into the
integrator amplifier U23, causing the tuning voltage to
integrate downward, this increases the PLO's output and
increases the feedback frequency at U22 pin 3. This
process continues until the signals at U22 pins 1 and 3 are
again matched in frequency and phase. The phase detector
outputs are inactive hi
h, and the loop is at reset.
9E-4-21. THE VCO. The phase detector's corrections are
integrated and saved by the loop amplifier, an integrating
amplifier (refer to A1 schematic). This makes a tuning
voltage that sets the frequency of the VCO (voltagecontrolled oscillator). The oscillator is a sawtooth
generator driving a Schmitt trigger. The voltage-controlled
current source (Q16) charges capacitor C42 in a linear
ramp until the ramp reaches about +2.4 volts. This goes
through an emitter follower (Q17) and appears at U24C(9)
at + 1.8 volts. This is the upper trigger point on the
Schmitt gate. The output of U24C snaps low and
discharges C42 through CR21 to about +0.6 volts. This is
below the negative threshold, so the Schmitt output snaps
high and the sawtooth starts again. The negative pulse
train at U24C(8) is used as the PLO output, and it is this
frequency that is counted by the decade counter. The
waveforms would appear as follows in Fi
ure 9E-4-2.
It is important to remember that the frequency/tuning
voltage (U23 pin 6) is a negative relationship. That is, the
lower the tunin
voltage, the higher the frequency.
9E-4-23. SEARCH INDICATOR CIRCUIT. The VCO
runs continuously whether the loop is locked (normal
operation) or not. In the high resolution range, there is
always a signal from the VCO to the 5305B counting
circuitry, whether or not there is a signal at the Channel B
input. As a result, the counter is always armed and tries to
count the VCO frequency (typically 25 kHz) even without
an input. This is prevented by the search indicator circuit,
U16A, U18C, U24A, Q19.
9E-4-24. When the detector's inputs are in phase, the U22
output pins (2 and 13) are always TTL high. If the loop is
not locked, one or the other will be low much of the time.
Whenever either is low, U24B(6) is high, signaling an
error in the loop. These error pulses are averaged by R77,
R78, and C36. If the errors are large enough, the LOST
line from comparator U16A will snap low in about 50
msec. In the high resolution range, LOST passes through
gate U18C and becomes STOP (active high). STOP lights
the SEARCH lamp (S annunciator) through Q14 and gates
off the 10 MHz clock at U10A. This prevents the counter
from continuing with more measurements or display
updates and saves the last valid reading in the display.
LOST enables gates U18 Band D, which pass the phase
correction signals through resistor R76 (5.1KΩ). R76 is in
parallel with R81 (82KΩ, so R81 is effectively reduced
from 82K ohm to about 5K ohm. This greatly increases
loop bandwidth and allows for rapid searches and short
acquisition times.
ure 9E-4-2. VCO Waveforms at about 2 MHz
Fi
9E-4-22. When the VCO is running at much less than 10
MHz, it becomes very difficult to see the narrow pulses at
U24C(8) on a scope. It is easier to see the sawtooth or a
squarewave at half the VCO frequenc
at U21(9).
9E-4-25. When an in-range input signal is restored to
Channel B, the loop will lock. The phase corrections stop,
U24B(6) (the error signal) stays low, and C36 discharges
through R77 (100K ohm). As the average error signal
drops through +1 volt, the lower threshold, U16A(1) snaps
high, and STOP goes low. U24A(3) inverts this negative
edge into a positive edge and Q19 is switched on for about
0.1 seconds. This clears all the counters and the time base,
so a new measurement is begun, making the first reading
correct. Meanwhile the SEARCH light is switched off,
and the loop bandwidth is reduced to a low value to allow
roper stability for accurate measurements.
9E-4-26. NON-LINEAR VCO CHARACTERISTIC.
When no signal is available at the PLO input, the VCO is
tuned to its lowest frequency (about 25 kHz). If a high
frequency (e.g., 10 kHz) is applied, the VCO must be
slewed all the way to 10,000 kHz to achieve lock. This
would take a loop that is stable at 50 Hz almost two
minutes to achieve lock. Therefore, gates U18 Band D,
were added, and the VCO characteristic has a bend in it.

9E-4-27. This puts a step in the loop bandwidth at about
300 Hz input, increasing loop bandwidth drastically above
300 Hz. (Higher loop bandwidth is allowable at higher input
frequencies.) This greatly reduces acquisition time for a 10
kHz input.
Figure 9E-4-3. VCO Characteristics
9E-4-28. This "bend" in the VCO curve is accomplished by
CR24 and R90. The corrected tuning voltage is the voltage
between Q16's emitter and the +12 volt supply. The current
is set by the resistance between those points. For corrected
tuning voltages less than about 2 volts (actual tuning voltage
above +9.4 vots), the tri-diode CR24 is off and out of the
circuit. The effective resistance is R90 plus R83, or about
6500 ohms. For larger corrected tuning voltages (higher
frequencies), the tri-diode is on and shorts R90, removing it
from the circuit. Now the effective resistance is R83, or 270
ohms.
9E-4-30. 1300 MHz ÷ Circuit
9E-4-31. The A2 board amplifies the Channel A signal and
then divides it by four before sending it to A1 via J2(9). U26
divides the EECL signal by two before Q18 converts the
signal to ECL. Another divide-by-two stage is provided by
U25. Differential amplifier Q12 and Q13 converts the signal
to a positive driven ECL (H = 4.3V, L = 3.2V). Q11
rovides a low impedance to U12's input.
9E-4-32. A2 1300 MHZ AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY
9E-4-33. The 1300 MHz Amplifier assembly (A2) consists
of circuitry to amplify, prescale, and detect signals up to
1300 MHz. Input signals are routed through a protective fuse
F1 to the 1.3 GHz limiter circuitry. The limiters consist of
CR2, 7, 1, 4 and limit the input to approximately 5V rms. A
voltage controlled attenuator made up of pin diodes CR5, 6,
8, and 9 provides variable attenuation as determined by an
AGC circuit.
9E-4-34. The attenuator output connects to U2 which
provides 20-24 dB gain. U3 divides the signal by 2 and
routes it to U4 where it is divided by 2 again. Since U3 has
no Schmitt trigger, U3 is set for maximum sensitivity.
Operating at maximum sensitivity gives U3 a tendency to
oscillate when no input signal is applied. To maintain high
sensitivity and prevent oscillations, R22 is adjusted to
desensitize U3 when the ARM line is high and produce high
sensitivity when the ARM line is low. This allows the
counter readings to "snap on" from no input signal to the
exact reading when a signal is applied. The amount of "snap
on" feedback is controlled by A1R71. The greater the "snap
on" feedback, the less the possibility of partial counts, but
also the lower the sensitivit
.
9E-4-29. MISCELLANEOUS A1 CIRCUITS. R84 (330K
ohm) sets the lowest VCO frequency at about 25 kHz,
corresponding to a 25 Hz input. Otherwise, the VCO could
actually go to 0 Hz, and the phase detector outputs would go
high because the VCO would appear to be locked to a 0 Hz
input (no input). This would turn off the search indicator.
C47 (100 pF) sets the width of the narrow low-going pulse
at the VCO output, U24C(8). Diode CR17 prevents the
tuning voltage from going too low when the loop tries to
acquire an excessive high input signal (above 11 kHz). Pin 3
of the loop amplifier is biased at + 1.5 volts. This forces pin
2 to also be at + 1.5V which is a good bias point to allow
roper operation of the diode switches.
9E-4-4
9E-4-35. As the input level increases, the level into A2U1
increases. A bridge circuit comprised of CR11, CR12 and
associated resistors including R13 which balances the
bridge. As the input level to the bridge increases, the
rectified bridge output drives the input to U1 to cause the
output of U1 to go low. This reduces the amount of current
through A1R9, R1 (sen. pot), L4, L1, CR6, CR8, and R11.
As the current through this path decreases, the resistance of
the PIN diodes (CR6, 8) increases to offer more attenuation
to the input signal. Similarly, the current increases through
CR9, R10, R1, R3, R6, R7, CR5 and R2, which decreases
the resistance of CR5 and CR9 to shunt more of the signal to
round through C5 and C9.

c. Check Loop Amplifier U23. For a 1 kHz input U23(6)
should be about +9V to + 10V. If it is + 11 V or
higher. the loop responds as if the VCO output
frequency is too high. This is true when the loop is
receiving no input at U22(1). If U23(6) is low (about
+4 volts), the loop responds as if the VCO frequency is
too low and tries to increase it. This would indicate a
bad VCO (U24 pin 8) or a bad + 1000 chain (U21,
U20, and U19).
9E-5-36. VOLTAGE-CONTROLLED OSCILLATOR.
To check the VCO, connect an oscilloscope to U21(9).
There should be a square wave at half the VCO frequency.
For a 1 kHz input, the VCO output should be 1 MHz, 1000
times the input. The VCO should run between 25 kHz (U236 at + 11 volts) and 11 MHz (U23-6 at +4 volts). If a square
wave appears at U21(9) from 12 kHz to 5.5 MHz, the
frequency should relate roughly to the voltage at U23-6. If
not, probably trouble is in circuitry associated with Q16,
R83, C42 or U24(9) If there is no indication at U21-9, check
the same circuits. Also, check that U23(6) is above +4 volts
otherwise the VCO tends to shut off. CR17 should prevent
this.
9E-5-37. If there is no indication at U21(9), connect the
scope to U24(9) and check for the following sawtooth
volta
e at the output frequency.
9E-5-38. If the waveform is improper, the VCO is faulty. I
the signal is present, and not at U21(9), U21 probably is bad.
If the signal is between 12 kHz and 5 MHz at U21(9), there
should be 1/500 of that at U22(3). If not, U19, U20 and/or
U21 are faulty.
9E-5-39. DETECTOR CIRCUIT. Check U23(3); it should
be at +1.5 volts ±.3 volts. A problem here will saturate U23.
Now test U22, the detector. If U22(1) has a faster frequency
than U22(3), U22(13) should be low part or all of the time at
a rate similar to that at U22(3).
U22(2) should always be TTL high (≈+ 3.5V).

9E-5-40. If the reserve is true, i.e., the frequency at U22(3) is
greater than U22(1), then U22(2) should pulse low (or stay
low if nothing at pin 1). and U22(13) should always be high.
Pins 2 and 13 can never be low to
ether.
9E-5-41. "S" LIGHT ON, NO MEASUREMENTS. It is
possible that the PLO is working properly but no
measurements are made. If the negative edges of the signals
at U22(1 and 3) match, the PLO is working properly. U22(2
and 13) should be high almost all the time, and U24(6) should
be low almost always (small positive pulses). Then U16(1)
(LOST) should be at TTL 1 (+5 volts). If not, there is
something wrong with it or associated parts R77, R78, R59,
R61, R62, R70 or R36. Also, U18(10) (STOP) should be low.
When STOP is high, counter operation is frozen by stopping
the clock at U10(13), and the "S" li
ht is lit.
9E-5-42. FAULTY DISPLAYS WITH NO INPUT. When
the input is disconnected, the display should hold last reading,
if not check the stop circuits (U24, U16, and U18).
9E-5-43. INCORRECT FIRST READING. The first
measurement after a signal is applied should be accurate. If
way off, the reset circuit Q19 is not working. About 1/2
second after a signal is applied, U18(10) should go low,
U24(3) should go high and Q19 should saturate for about
1/10 second. This should pull J1-32 (50 pin connector) low
and the s
stem should "manual reset".
All 8's should show in the display (5300B) for 1/10 second,
then 0's until new measurement displayed at end of gate time.
If not, there are problems around Q19, R91, R92, R93 or C48.
9E-5-44. SLOW ACQUISITION. If the 5305B takes more
than about 1 second to make a measurement (plus gate time)
after a signal is applied to the PLO, circuit problems exist.
With no signal, check that U16(1) is low (LOST). U18 should
be enabled, and low rate (25 Hz) pulses should appear at
U18(1) (same as of U22 pin 2). Connect a 20 kHz signal and
check for pulses at U18(13). The S light should be on during
this time. Check CR16 and CR18. If CR24 (a tri-diode) is
open, tuning will be slow and the upper frequency limit will
be very low. If CR20 and CR22 are open, the loop will be
sli
htly erratic.
9E-5-45. NOT ENOUGH RANGE (10 kHz). If the PLO
will not measure high frequencies (10 kHz). check CR24 and
ensure proper values of R83, C42, and C47. The tuning
voltage at U23(6) should be about +4V at the highest
frequenc
. Also, check the + 12V supply.
9E-5-46. POOR LOW-FREQUENCY RANGE. If the
counter does not measure low frequency (50 Hz). check Q16
for leakage. Ensure that U23(6) can pull voltage high enough
(Q16 should be off at the lower frequency limit). Check C49,
C47, and CR21 and check for +1.5V at U23(3).

Low signal provides print command to rear panel connector on
mainframe.
Low signal transfers data to display. High signal stores data.
Time base select code A, B, and C determines the time base
frequency at the time base output, pin 18.
Full wave rectified voltage from the power transformer secondary.
Provides power to charge the battery pack. If no battery pack is
used, pin 25 is connected via the plug-on to pin 50 (DC-IN).
Pins 27 through 31 provide the drive to the annunciator lights
on the front panel. A low signal lights the corresponding
indicator.
Low signal from front panel pushbutton switch or rear panel input
clears the system to zero.
Low signal activates decimal point 1.
Low signal activates decimal point 2.
Digit address code X, Y, Z from the display scanner
indicates which data digit is being displayed.
Digit select code X, Y, Z is the code that selects the mainframe counter
digit that is to be displayed. If the mainframe counter is displayed
directly, the corresponding lines of the digit address code and the digit
select code are connected together.
