A minimalist approach for the 5MHz to 10MHz doubler could use a full
wave (diode, BJT or JFET) doubler followed by a series tuned 5MHz
shunt trap to minimise the 5MHz content in the output.
Actually, it depends on weither you would like to get a 10 MHz or not.

What is strange is the decay. If it was a noise glitch, one would expect it
to last one sample. But, it decays back to the

By having only one sensor, in the case of the double oven that is obviously
not true, but what I meant was that even with a double oven, you only have
one sensor near the components you try to regulate, the other sensor
regulates the outside temperature of the first oven.

Remember that heat flow is proportional to the FOURTH power of the temperature
difference. Insulation is generally a linear function. The combination makes
thermal stabilization over even small ambient temperature ranges rather
problematic.

Timenuts,
In introductory texts regarding the FFT there is some mention of Fourier's
studies having had something to
do with heat transfer. Yet most of the FFT work I've been exposed to has to do
with decomposing signals

Yes, I know these aren't in the standard resistor sequence.
Hi Dave Rapid Electronics in Colchester do SMBs the eaiest way to get
200 ohms might be 2 by 100ohm in series..though it wont fit a ready made

www.rapidelectronics.co.uk
or www.rapidonline.com is one they quote now I think both work.
I dont think you will get 74ACs there
