…. sorry for the previous blank message….
A lot depends on what kind of inductors they are. If it's a static field, then
you have to saturate the core. That's pretty hard unless the core is ferrite.
Most powdered iron and (of course) air are fairly immune to static field.
If it's an AC fiel

That's been true for a *long* time. Neither one is very magnetic. Both likely
are hard enough to be even less magnetic than they might be.

Hi Attila,
Makes a big difference if there are AC magnetic fields in the system, they can
create spurs through mutual inductance.
Our Fury GPSDO is designed completely without any switching regulators for that
reason. One customer used it on helicopters for measuring magnetic field
variations

Hi Volker,
What is being plotted here? Efc? Time interval as reported by the GPSDO?
External counter versus a stable reference?
It looks like the resolution is approaching 10ns/s (1E-08 at 1s), and that the
short term effects may be hidden in this noise?
The effects are clearly visible in your
Vibration: interesting consideration. In my experiment the fan is very
softly coupled to the case (since it is lying on some soft cables),
furthermore the power supply is a different one - not the one that
powers the Z3805. I've tried to avoid those effects. I send some ADEV
plots in an hour.
Mark,
Your plot still shows excursions of +/-1E-010, about 100x higher base noise
than the Z3801A/Z3805A are capable of achieving. Wonder where that noise is
coming from? This noise is probably much higher than the thermal effects.
