I believe the Western Electric D1 channel bank was the first and the European standard came along later. Then came the D2, the D3 and finally the D4 when integrated codecs finally came to be and it was practical to get rid of the common codec and do it channel by channel. I have tried to

I am working on a PLL design that uses the Lattice MX02-256 for the dividers and XOR phase detector. I have not made any measurements on it yet but will report back when it happens. On 1/5/2014 7:37 PM, Hal Murray wrote: I was looking at the archives - what was the outcome of this: What

It looks like the winding stem is the GPS antenna? If that is the case, then it could get calibrated when ever it can see some satellites and sit still for awhile. The next thing it needs is solar cells to recharge the battery. The WWVB watches are doing that now. Tom On 10/1/2013 4:28 PM,

I haven't even begun to look for video amps yet. I may not need one if I filter an output of an high powered 5V buffer. What I hear is a simple passive low pass filter will do. That being the case, I may put them on all the outputs and make it a jumper option. The other project brewing

I am working on a small clock distributor and wanted to get some ideas on what works best for 10MHz and 1PPS driver circuits. I remember sifting through the archives a year or so ago and tripped on some discussion of this but I can't find it anymore. Tom
