The ASOPS engine consists of two femtosecond lasers, TL-1000 ASOPS for offset frequency stabilization, an optical trigger unit, a high-speed balanced optical photoreceiver, a personal computer housing the data acquisition card and the HASSP-Scope software for measurement and analysis of time-domain data. The femtosecond lasers can be chosen from either the 1 GHz or the 84 MHz range of lasers

| Repetition rate range | 1 GHz | 84 MHz** |
| Typical repetition rate offset | 2 kHz to 20 kHz | 10 Hz to 1 kHz |
| Time resolution | <60 fs* over full 1 ns window | <100 fs* over 5 ns window |
| Time delay window | 1 ns |
11.9 ns |
* time resolution inherently increases at larger offset frequencies.
** the standard repetition rate is chosen to be 84 MHz. Customer specific repetition rates between 80 MHz and 90 MHz are available upon request.
