EIP Microwave

EIP Microwave

EIP Microwave was a California-based manufacturer of microwave frequency counters and RF measurement instruments, widely used in telecommunications, defense electronics, and microwave engineering from the 1970s through the 1990s. Their instruments were known for high accuracy and broad frequency coverage, making them a standard tool in RF and microwave laboratories. The EIP 545A and related models are classic microwave frequency counters that remain in service for maintenance and calibration of legacy RF systems.

EIP Microwave instruments supported measurement of frequencies well into the microwave range, enabling engineers to characterize oscillators, synthesizers, transmitters, and microwave components with precision. Their counters featured high input sensitivity and resolution suited for both CW and pulsed RF signals.
