IDENTIFICATION AND DESCRIPTION
This bulletin provides instructions for the
1. Test Instrument Identification.
calibration of the Digitizing Oscilloscope, Agilent, Models 54600A, 54601A and 54602A.
The manufacturer's manuals were used as the prime data source in compiling these
instructions. The equipment being calibrated will be referred to as the TI (test instrument)
throughout this bulletin.
Variations among models are described in text, tables and

figures.
b. Time and Technique. The time required for this calibration is approximately 3
hours, using the dc and low frequency techniques.
2. Forms, Records, and Reports. Forms, records, and reports required for calibration
personnel at all levels are prescribed by TB 750-25.
3. Calibration Description. TI parameters and performance specifications which
pertain to this calibration are listed in table 1.
