[time-nuts] Efratom 105243-003 10MHz OCXO

2018-03-02 Thread David C. Partridge
Does anyone know the specs for the 10MHz output of this? I'm looking at a board using it that is terminating it with a 100kOhm resistor to ground. Yeah I know, probe it with a scope - the catch is that the equipment is currently well disassembled so I can't do that so easily ... Is the output

Hi Pretty good bet that if it’s a 100K termination it’s a square wave output. The highest impedance you typically see on a sine wave is about 1K ohms. Even that is pretty rare on OCXO’s. Bob > On Mar 2, 2018, at 2:07 PM, David C. Partridge > wrote: > > Does

I have a unit out to Mark Sims for eval and testing with Lady Heather. Furuno isn't honoring last year's quote. For qty 100+ they quoted me $35.00 each. That was the quote for qty 1 last year. I pushed back and they dropped it slightly to $33.94 -not much of a discount and that's their 1000+

I got in my prototype Furuno GT-8031 adapter boards in and it is working well. Lady Heather now works with the GT-8031. The M12 prototpe adapter boards have shipped from OSHPARK a couple of days ago. They might get here today. I have since updated the adapter boards to add a CR2032 backup

The M12 boards arrived today, but there is a small problem with them. The holes for the receiver 2x5 .050 spaced pins are too small. The Furuno pins measure around .003" wider than the Motorola pins (that fit, rather tightly) so probably also some PCB drill hole/plating tolerance issues.

My Z3801A happily accepted a recent year (2016?) when it rolled over. You have to do the power-down, disconnect antenna, send corrected date, power down, connect antenna, power up sequence. I don't think the updated date appears until the unit starts tracking satellites again. Or, Lady
