Well Not exactly, It depends on the type and source of the noise error.
The simple answer is that the default damping setting of 1.2 on the Tbolt
is a good compromise

If you want to get your hands dirty, I'd suggest you to try VE2ZAZ's design.

Hi,
Depending how deep you want, to go you must
note that this one from ve2zaz (btw which is a great
design given it's simplicity) is a FLL not a PLL.
(unlike most of the others that really lock the phase of the
signal to the 10KHz or 1pps).

To hear an Apple or a UNIX disciple tell it, Microsoft never does anything
right. The fact is, Windows made personal computing bloom.
I bought a Mac and a PC clone w/in a few weeks of each other in the early

died at least

John, this article wasn't biased toward any OS, nor about

Hello Jerome,
I use Labview with a NI GPIB card.
There are already data logging modules using the HP5328B for labview.
The code is easily modified and using labview you can debug by single step etc.
Even if you have access to an old ISA bus GPIB card only, you can set up a GPIB
network
Hi Mark,
Thanks for your response, It is good to see that there are some solutions.
However ~$1,250 for the Base version of LabView is a bit steep for tinkering in
the garage.
So it sounds like the NI-Visa and the KE5FX gpib toolkit is all I need to get a
graph of the frequencies measured?
You don't need NI-Visa for the GPIB Toolkit, but you do need NI488.2
drivers. You can get NI488.2 support with the Agilent I/O libraries.
You won't, however, be able to use the GPIB Toolkit to graph anything
directly, except for the cases that it already handles. There is a time-

If you're not tied to Windows, I've written scripts in Perl under Linux
to get time and frequency data out of several HP counters (though not
the 5382). There is an open-source set of drivers and interface
libraries called linux-gpib that support virtually all GPIB cards and
USB dongles, and

You can often find IOtech serial-GPIB converters on eBay for well under
$100.
