Hi Anders,
thank you for providing your graphics. Very interesting.
I will put my results to my github repository if done. Right now I have
to take a break for my surgery.
best regards
Chris

Hi
Assuming Mark’s data is at 10 MHz and 1 second then 0.0002 Hz is 20 ppt. That
number
can be compared directly against data presented for a variety of other devices.
By far the
best way to do the comparison would be to take data over a range of tau’s and
look at the
resulting plot. That way
This would be an interesting compare.
I want to compare the FA1 and the TSA3011 if I am back in office and
have both in my hands...
But I really do not want to buy unnecessary tools... So if someone has
done this it would be nice to read about that.
Mark, do you have also a TICC?

How would this compare to the TAPR TICC Rev D? The one that has the arduino
base? About half the price I see.

Jerry

Yes, it should work with Timelab, Stable32, etc. It streams a series of
frequency measurements every second out the USB port (it uses a FTDI chip for
the USB interface). The data is of the format:
" F:0123456789.123456789" (without the quotes)

Hi Mark,
interesting post.
So is the FA1 compatible with the TimeLab or Stable32 software?
And could I do phase noise measurements with it like the TimePod?

maybe the measurement principle is similar to the PicoPak?

Do open it up! And send a high resolution picture to the ist ;)

The FA1 is a small, USB powered frequency counter. You supply it with a 10
MHz reference and an input frequency of 1 .. 80 MHz. It outputs a text string
of the measured frequency every second. They cost around $80
