Analog reference voltage from the uno is available. The adc and dac can

I agree with you. I learned from my grandmother "we are to poor to buy

FWIW on the topic, since I've been doing some Arduino stuff of late. Bear in
mind like many of you I'm not a software person, so that part doesn't come so
easy to me.
The $3.71 ebay board looks nice, but it's not an official Arduino design, and
may not be well documented. All official Arduino b
I actually think there would be a few changes also as already discussed. I
am not a fan of PWM bits to voltage conversion. High on my list would be a
true 16 or so odd bit DAC and quite reference. But that drives up cost.
Will let the thread run a bit more and see how it all develops.

Paul.

You could of ouster use the little $3.71 part. But it would not be "load
and go".
Thanks I did see the post.
But now numbers of opinions are popping up on the thread and that tends to
make things confusing.
Why use the 28 pin chip? My answer is this. Anything I ever do has other
stuff associated with it. So the fact that I can easily solder to the chip

Graham is correct too. You can do this all with bare chips. But then you
need to build a PCB. Lars used the most number of pre-built parts and was
able to make an entire GPSDO using two external chips and did not have to
fabricate a PCB. I think this is what makes the project so attacive, just

There's an internal comparator interrupt hardware in the Atmel chip the

Actually, you don't need an Arduino board to use the Arduino IDE to
program an Arduino nor do you you need the USB interface to the Arduino
board to program an Arduino.
For example, you can have a simple Atmega328 circuit with a six or ten
pin in circuit programming connection (ISP) connected

You can buy the chip already on the PCB with supporting circuitry for
less then the price of the chip alone. No need to go with a bare
chip. I think the reason is that the tiny SMT package chips sell in
the millions and only a hob best would use the larger DIP through hole
package. Look at eBay
You've lost me, what code are you modifying at the moment, is it the
actual Datum demo software?

Lars has done a very good job here and good to see the comments and
excitement.
Have to agree with HAL that holdover is far more than a second and I am in
a good location with the GPS antenna at 90'. I see my 3801 go into holdover
occasionally and its not seconds.

Only if you have a good antenna and/or antenna location.
I have several low cost GPS units located in far-from-ideal locations. They
work most of the time but often fade o
