[time-nuts] Vectron MC2003X4-001W Oscillator
Well I probed the connector pins and learned enough to operate these oscillators. At +10 V input , the input current ceased increasing. Output was 10 MHz. As a fellow list member offered, these are apparently ruggedized oscillators, designed to minimize phase noise under vibration conditions -- otherwise a ho-hum form of oscillator. Thanks to those that helped.

Re: [time-nuts] Bourns for fine frequency tuning
Thanks Matthias, Mouser and Digikey have in catalog but not in stock the 100K version. The 100k value for them is not required enough and they suggest that they could have them but only if the order is for a large number of pieces. Luciano Luciano P. S.

The data sheet has no 100K version. Also the type number is probably a typo. 1004 would mean 100 which would be 1 Meg, practically impossible to do produce from NiCr wire or similar. If all it has to do is selecting a voltage between 0 and some reference voltage, 10K is probably just OK. regards, Gerhard ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@lists.febo.com To unsubscribe, go to http://lists.febo.com/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts_lists.febo.com and follow the instructions there.

[time-nuts] Bourns for fine frequency tuning
Hi everyone, I need your help to find a particular Bourns potentiometer that many frequency standard company use for frequency fine tuning in their oscillators. In my experience, both HP in 107BR and Frequency Electronics in the AN URQ-23 use this potentiometer which has a value of 100k Ohm. Unfortunately I can't replace it with other models and by doing some research I found some but at most with a resistance of 10K Ohm. I need two pieces, but if I find more, I would keep them in reserve. The problem with these multiturns is that the back cover comes off and no longer work. Some can be glued again, others are damaged internally in the cursor because the operator insisted trying to force the spindle. In the case of the HP107BR the potentiometer is installed in the external oven and the temperature has accentuated the gluing problem. In this regard, suggestions on which glue can be used for high temperatures are welcome. The model is: Bourns 3700S-196-1004 thanks, Luciano Luciano P. S.
