Re: [time-nuts] uBlox F9T testing - best settings?

2019-09-22 Thread Michael Wouters
Hello Peter The aim of our study was to characterise the performance of single frequency receivers for time-transfer. The F9P was a late addition to our study and extending our software to dual frequency was too much work at the time. Having a measured ionosphere was not such a huge improvement

Update: last Friday our students have populated a few prototype boards ( http://www.lartmaker.nl/time-nuts/dmtd-proto.jpg), and this weekend I managed to get some early code running on it. The good: Noise performance matches the datasheet (1.19LSB_RMS given, 1.21LSB_RMS measured). The 1/f corner

Hello Anders, Yes, we used TAPR TICCs do the testing. It’s a very economical solution for testing multiple receivers in parallel. The OpenTTP software mktimetx applies sawtooth corrections to the TIC measurements, as you guessed. The corrected TIC measurements are combined with the raw GNSS

Hello Hal, The PPS signal is on pin #3 - on the lower right in the picture - you'll see the LED and the resistor - you should be able to pick off the PPS signal from there. 73's, John AJ6BC On Sat, Sep 21, 2019 at 5:00 PM Hal Murray wrote: > > j...@westmorelandengineering.com said: > > Just

From: Hal Murray Just saw this at All-Electronics - thought some here could be interested: https://www.allelectronics.com/item/gps-8m/gps-module/1.html No obvious PPS connection. There may be a PPS LED where you could pick it up, but I don't see any documentation.

Looking closer at the picture provided at that link, it appears that pin 3 (TIMEPULSE) is broken out to a resistor and LED (toward the bottom right mounting hole). Probably still best to ask though. > On Sep 21, 2019, at 6:20 PM, Hal Murray wrote: > > > j...@westmorelandengineering.com said:

Hi Michael, thanks for the reminder about your slides! Your page 4 has the two setups. I think you are right in that the F9T doesn't seem to take an external receiver clock (even if working with the bare part, not the RCB-board). (FWIW, AFAIK the not-so-low-cost septentrios use the left external
