Hi
One of the bigger unknowns in all this is how tight your control point needs
to be held
in order that your crystal only sees 0.1C. So far we have sort of assumed that
the
control point and the crystal see the same thing. That’s never the case.
If the outside temperature goes from -30 to +

It's hard to filter low frequencies and the more bits you gain by dithering
the lower
I am looking for a spare Alubos ABP 800 series enclosure (115mm length),

Some time-nuts readers noted in April, they had "extra" Alubos 800 enclosures

I noted that no one answered your query from April.
D-subminiature connectors were introduced by Cannon in 1952.

Hi,
As a side comment. I've seen an OCXO misbehave such that it was
bang-bang regulating. For a short while it was heating up and then the
crystal was cooling down slowly until the heater was turned on again,
shortly. The effect being that the temperature of the crystal was
essentially a saw-
Hi
The next issue is that “noise” has a pretty broad definition in this case.
If you are looking at set point, it also would include temperature drift and
aging. Neither one seem to show up on the standard MCU ADC data sheets :)
It can even be a bit difficult to find them on some (but certainly n

Hi
At least in my experience, a properly functioning OCXO will rarely (if ever) be
outside +/- 1 degree of the
set point when in full PID (integrator enabled) mode. You may well use a custom
set of control parameters
for the warmup phase. You might even use a non-PID based control (shut off all
Hi,
Very good point Poul-Henning, very good point.
The mux is there, we don't need the resolution far out, and with only a
little though code-wise and hardware wise we get the best of resolution
and range where we need it.
Cheers,
Magnus

Most uC's have a pile of mux'ed ADC inputs, so do all of the above:
Hi,
Indeed. I prefer to have margins and dynamics, as it makes it easier.
Cutting in on that will require more work to ensure it works, hence you
have to work more to save money in order to maintain stable operations.

The “limited range” part of it is why the op-amp makes so much sense. If the
ADC can “see” +/-10C that’s
way more than will ever be useful. You could make a pretty good case for -5/ +1
C as being way more than
you will ever use. The only real issue with the +1 is ok argument is when you

Hi,
I was about to make this very point myself. The resolution of the ADC
needs to be higher than the limit you try to achieve. There is several
ways to reason about it, but one is that the system is a bit slugish you
want to have higher resolution in order to react of changes before they

Hi,
Many modern counters use this trick too, but much more gift-wrapped, in
that they themselves shift their oscillator to measure the shift and
hence figure out which overtone is being used and hence derive the
correct frequency. With HP5245 etc you had to do a little work on your
own for po

You do work pretty hard to turn the metal can into a getter. The other issue is
that
the adsorption and desorption rates are quite different. Once you get the

into a layer state, it takes a long time to get it back out. Much better to not
have it
there in the first place.
