That's excellent, will you by chance be making the printed circuit board design public? -=Bryan=- From: time-nuts on behalf of Matthias Welwarsky Sent: December 12, 2020 12:49 AM To: time-nuts@lists.febo.com Subject: Re: [time-nuts] Ublox 8T - breakout board

Since the proposed board is not too dense you can provide the pads for the SMA connector and driver circuitry and don't populate them if you don't need that feature.   But this is the time-nuts group so I think that a lot of people would be interested in the PPS output. Why would you get a uBlox

Hi The issue with coax becomes: Do you want to drive a terminated line? On a board built for a single application, you likely know the answer to that and can design appropriately. On a general purpose board, you probably need to allow for the “worst case” configuration ( = terminated). No,

Hi If you are going to drive much with the timepulse output, you will need to buffer it. This is true for just about any practical length of coax. It also applies to other cables once they get past the “few inches” range. Ideally the coax buffer would be something like 4 or so ‘125 buffers in

May I suggest adding another SMA connector for the timepulse signal. Perhaps route the timepulse trace to the SMA first then to the DIP header.   This would allow you to cut the trace to the DIP header. This might improve signal integrity. Pete. On 12/12/2020 3:49 AM, Matthias Welwarsky wrote:

Just a thought re these LEA-M8T modules, but I don't recall seeing any previous mention that the same seller also has two other items with them still mounted on an interface board, these are Ebay items 33619130232 and 333820728021. Yes, they're more expensive, but perhaps the extra convenience
