I'd second that, sounds interesting and plenty of accuracy for the project I'm thinking of. On 10 Oct 2015 15:00, "Alex Pummer" wrote: > Hi Bert, > where could I get more inf on on that project? > 73 > KJ6UHN > Alex > > On 10/10/2015 4:23 AM, Bert Kehren via time-nuts wrote: > >> We did a GPS PL

I am still learning and want to understand, if the PPS is good then why is the programmable output bad, as I understand it thus far, the PPS is derived from the same clock source or have I got that badly wrong? On 9 October 2015 at 12:16, Bob Camp wrote: > Hi > > Doing a GPSDO by locking to the

The 9851 will work with pretty much any clock and give an output but of course you need a decent speed clock to get a useful range of frequencies. The handy feature of the 9851 is that it has a clock multiplier built in so that 30MHz can clock it at its maximum speed and give a useful DC-60MHz out

Bryan, I think we do, bought from an eBay seller named Fluke.I? I also found that schematic but it's a partial, very useful nonetheless. There's also a dump of the firmware and CPLD so I'm hoping I can make some sense of that to work out the CPLD, I'd be happy with a solid 10MHz output but to my

I've made some investigations and re-confirmed my earlier findings on the FE-5680B I have. It locks from cold in under five minutes and runs at approximately 700mA steady with the expected PPS signal on the output connector when locked. The particular 5680 I have has a Hi Density 15p male connect

The 10MHz output comes from the XC9572 CPLD but the fact that it's there for a few seconds makes me thing it's possible to recover it, by fair means or foul. It's possible it's just a gate, certainly looks like it's bing switched off and there's a file which claims to be a dump of the CPLD (as wel

2015-09-25 Thread Clint Jay
I've recently purchased one of the PPS Only FE Rubidium standards from eBay and, like many others I suspect, haven't been able to get a stable output frequency that lasts longer than a few seconds from the module. It appears that the 10MHz source vanishes after a few seconds but this is controlled
