Hi,
out of curiosity I want to build a ntp timeserver. I can remember some
epxerimets I carried out with a DCF77 receiver and a Cobalt Qube years
ago, however this never really worked out.
My plan is to buy a soekris net4501
(http://soekris.eu/shop/net4501/net4501_30_board_only_en.html)
Many... but a lot boils down to the fact that the Tbolt is designed from the
ground up to be a time (and frequency) source. Its 1PPS output can be stable
to within a few nanoseconds and the frequency to a few parts per trillion. The
Garmin 1PPS output is spec'd at 1 microsecond, plus you
Nothing wrong with wanting to use a Rb as the clock source for the board. I
*almost* decided to go that route since I had a spare
LPRO sitting around. But I realized that I would never need that long of
hold-over so it would kind of be a waste. I've been looking
at some cheap ($20 USD) 1PPM TCXO
Hi Jason,
Have a look on ebay.280567398921.
quite good TCXO.

Actually I was planning on getting a 33.8688 MHz TCXO, apparently there's a few
sellers with them because they are used for
audiophiles in their CD players? That way I don't have to use a clock-block or
other circuitry to get a usable frequency.

Search for RUBIDIUM and you will also find a guy selling a divider card that
takes the LPRO output and generates several clocks, including 1 Hz...
cheaper and more versatile than the FATPPS
A 1 Hz clock derived from a rubidium isn't synchronized to UTC second ticks.
