Do you happen to know what's wrong with the PS? If you can figure this out, you can probably fix it. AFAIK the DC-DC converters are still commodity parts, under a number of brands, so the easiest is if one of those crapped out. If the problem is in the "other" stuff, you'd need some reverse

Paul, Thanks for the thought. This Z3801A chassis already has an analog supply built in to drive 50 volt internal supply. That is why I am looking for the original . Again, thanks for the thought and 73 de Lon, k5jv. On Thu, May 5, 2022 at 1:13 PM paul swed wrote: > > Lon just in case they

Hi, Could not agree more on this point. It's even to the point we have two standards for it, the IEEE Std 1139 for the basic measures and noises, and then IEEE Std 1193 for the "environmentals", or rather, the rest. Both is being revisioned and 1139 just went out for re-balloting process

I am trying return to service a 58503A with option 001 display.  The motherboard is physically damaged beyond repair.  I have two identical motherboards, with id and update info, exactly the same as the original board.  However, neither will support the 001 optional display.  Apparently, I need

Dear all who responded – thank you for everything I’m learning from you. Gerhard, thanks for flagging your alternative implementation, especially the gateware. I’m not yet acquainted with FPGAs but it is still useful to read and generous of you to share. Tom, thanks. I do hope that you are

[time-nuts] Re: Can the ADEV of a GPSDO output ever be lower than the minimum of the ADEV of the internal oscilator and the ADEV of the GPS PPS?

2022-05-05 Thread Erik Kaashoek
André I've completed a comparison between simulation and measurement. In the simulation [1] you see the GPSDO ADEV pushed below the OCXO and PPS ADEV around the intersection of the PPS ADEV with the OCXO ADEV. In an actual measurement [2] with identical controller and controller parameters I
