UFC-6000 Key Features RF Frequency Counter Feature Advantages USB HID (Human Interface Device) Plug-and-Play (no need to install a driver for the device). Wide frequency range The UFC-6000 can measure the frequency of a signal from 1 to 6000 MHz Operates with external or internal reference The UFC-6000 can operate either synchronized with an external 10 MHz reference signal or independently, using its internal reference depending on user preference. LCD display 16x2 character LCD display providing the frequency reading, and information on the frequency counter’s status. USB powered Power to the UFC-6000 is supplied through the USB connector from either the USB bus or the supplied power adaptor with USB connector. Software CD, USB cable and power adaptor included A CD containing programming instructions for Linux® and Windows® operating systems, a GUI monitoring and control program and API objects for programmers is included with the UFC-6000. Also included are a 2.7ft. USB cable, and a 5VDC AC/DC power adaptor suitable for US, EU and UK power systems with a USB type A female connector. 1-6000 MHz Case Style: LJ1577 Installation CD with Software included Wide Frequency Range Product Overview Mini-Circuits’ UFC-6000 is a small, light weight Frequency Counter operating over the frequency range 1 to 6000 MHz. The counter is cased in a rugged shielded case (size of 6.16” X 3.68” X 1.38”) with a 16x2 character LCD display, a reference input BNC(F) port and a signal input SMA(F) port. Using the USB interface allows remote display of measured frequencies, and eliminates the need for an additional power supply. The counter can also operate independently using an external power supply. The UFC-6000 is supplied along with a software CD containing a graphical user interface program and programming APIs for 32 and 64 bit environments. Also included are a 2.7ft. USB cable and a power adaptor with a USB A female connector, suitable for US, EU, and other power systems - see page 4 for details. Longer USB cables and a mounting bracket are available as additional options.Trademarks: Windows is a registered trademark of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and other countries.

When the frequency range is known, the user can improve response time by manually selecting the frequency range by a software function through the GUI interface, or user programming. 2 Accuracy shown using external 10 MHz reference synchronized to test signal. Using Internal Reference adds 2 ppm of tested frequency to the accuracy values shown. 3 Software function set by user, default option 1 Sec. Permanent damage may occur if any of these limits are exceeded. Operating in the range between operating power limits and absolute maximum ratings for extended periods of time may result in reduced life and reliability.
