2. The PPS output could be an open collector/drain output which

3. The PPS output might have trouble
Something else occurred to me after I posted.
A 0.15 volt glitch could come from capacitive coupling if there was an

Hej Magnus
A capacitive sensing AC bridge can be very sensitive, one only has to
look at the work of RV Jones at the university of Glasgow in
the 50's,
60's and 70's. He and his
not see any symptoms
other than the self test error message. A nice counter but I'm getting ever
more nervous about the ability of current test equipment to survive 5 to 10
years.

I'm getting slightly suspicious about the assumptions as to what was
available 2000 years ago, the remarkable Antikythera Mechanism points to
some technologies of 2000 years ago being almost up to medieval European
standards. Clearly Antikythera indicates there were a few stunning items
around,
new and being new might be a way to sidestep
environmental concerns.

I'm not so convinced about this:
OMEGA was the primary means of radio navigation
different then thats
a different answer but when it comes to navigating planes, cars and
automobiles they are here now and will become more obvious with time,
I carefully said integration with GPS etc, that's the key.

bought the Minicircuits splitter on eBay for $30, buy-it-now, as I recall,
but it's been a while ago.
Hope that's helpful.

A transformer or differential signaling would also have the virtue of
allowing easy galvanic isolation to prevent ground loops.
Fiber optic and line receivers often set their switching threshold
using a positive and negative peak detector. The same design works
very well for analog peak to peak
Sampling oscilloscopes and digital storage oscilloscopes that support
equivalent time sampling do this very thing. My Tektronix 2230 with a
20 MS/sec flash converter has a bandwidth of 100 MHz and a 2 GS/sec
equivalent time sampling rate. A 7854 with a 500 kS/sec sampler (at
10 or 11 bits) and
Switched gain stages mean the bandwidth and transient response before
the ADC is going to change with different sensitivities unless both
are significantly limited which apparently is the case.
How do modern DSOs handle that? I guess it would explain why I have
been told their front end
If the bandwidth is really limited to 2 MHz, that is a rise and fall
time of 175ns. Some of those PPS signals are barely wider than that.

I see a big lack of details. Form factor? Insertion loss? Frequency
change with temperature? How does it compare with a standard Murata
filters?

Here's the link to the white paper:
I picked up a gimpy Beckman UC10 universal counter not long ago for
about $10 from Ebay. Even better, I just repaired a Tektronix 7D15
(it has a whole board full of those junk TI integrated circuit sockets
which need to be replaced) although you need to leave an entire
oscilloscope mainframe on
