[time-nuts] Prologix_GPIB vi

2016-02-01 Thread Bill Reed
I have just gotten Labview Home, This is the first serious vi I have written. 
It sweeps an HP3325A , collects data on an HP3478A and sweeps.
The sweep is strip and I would like the Xaxis to be stationary with Fmax and 
Fmin as the limits. I can not find this plot type in the library.

Any suggestions?

Re: [time-nuts] Digital Phasae Lock Loops

2015-10-17 Thread Bill Reed

I also knew Dr. Gardner in that time frame. I had the responsibility
for the specification and procurement of the Saturn V com system.
It included a phase locked turn around offset transponder for Doppler
tracking.
Also forward command and return telemetry. To gain some knowledge
of phase locked systems I contracted Dr. Gardner to conduct a course
on phase locked techniques at MSFC. This course became the basis
for his book. He gave me a signed copy.

[time-nuts] EZGPIB / ProfiLab

2014-12-26 Thread Bill Reed
Hi,
I am using EZGPIB to capture data via HP3325A and HP3478A  and it works great ( 
thanks Jack ). Ulrich Bangert in the EZGPIB manual suggests that EZGPIB and 
ProfiLab can run concurrently.
Does this mean that I can plot data via ProfiLab in near real time ( without 
exiting EZGPIB and plotting a stored file)?

If anybody has any experience with ProfiLab. I would like to know it 
capabilities before procuring. I have the demo but it seems to be missing some 
dll’s that are required.
Contact me offline if you do not want a new thread.

For my last 8 years at Agilent before retiring in March, I
was doing advanced RD on network analyzers.  The newer
guys coming up didn't have an intuitive understanding of
network analyzer architectures like I did. I
started using the 8410 back in 1973 before I even worked
for HP.  Because of the modular design, it was like a
teaching tool that forced you to understand what was
going on.  When I mentored the young guys, I would
explain to them a lot of principles based on the 8410.
Modern network analyzers are too automatic.
The 8410 puts modern VNA's into perspective.  BTW, I used
to sit next to Dick Lee, who was a member of the 8410
design team in 1963 at the dawn of the golden age of
microwave instruments based on YIG tuned oscillators
and step recovery diode samplers.

As you noted, the architecture was built around the YIG tuned oscillator 
and certain things were done that way they were because of that.

There are a 30 turn 6.5 inch diameter hard line, wide band hybrid

I believe the hard line discharges into a step diode. The power supply

Re: [time-nuts] fast edge, rise time.

2014-01-13 Thread Bill Reed

Hi,

Since there is no interest in my pulse generator maybe one of you knows 
someone at NBS who can provide a schematic of the generator.
It has  NBS Impulse Generator   SN 3-75-2  engraved on the front panel and 
is ~ 10 x 16 x 17.


Thanks,
Bill Reed

Hi,

Since you guys are interested in fast pule generators, I have one you may be
interested in.
I got it in govt. auction about 25 years ago for ~ $ 50.00. I will sell it
to anyone for  $ 50.00 plus shipping.
I prefer to sell to someone who will restore and use it rather than parting
it. It has more than $ 50.00 parts in it.
There are a 30 turn 6.5 inch diameter hard line, wide band hybrid coupler,
diode assembly and several adapters and attenuators.
I believe the hard line discharges into a step diode. The power supply
includes 200 V plus other voltages.
If I remember correctly ( I have no high speed scope now ) the pulse is 2
nanoseconds wide with a 280 picosecond rise time and and 2.5 Vpp.
I checked with a 200 MHz digital scope and can see a pulse that verifies my
scopes bandwidth. The rate generator works but has problems.
See facebook (ree...@otelco.net) for pictures under Impulse.

Hi Merv,

Thanks. I will try one.

This is a great group!

Hi Bill,

I have a number of these modules purchased from the particular eBay source
you gave a link for.  They work well but I never found a way to keep their
data output as NMEA as they seem to revert to Binary on power down.  However
if it is just the 10KHz output you want from them or their Binary data
stream they should be fine in my humble opinion.  I have a small batch file
that commands them into NMEA once powered up but nothing to save this
setting.

[time-nuts] GPS with 10KHz output

2013-09-18 Thread Bill Reed
Hi,

Does anyone know the suitability of this module for GPSDO ?

I am new to the group.

Thanks,
