Hi Tom:

The plot at http://www.thinksrs.com/products/PRS10.htm showing GPS and Rb indicates that GPS for times less than say 500 seconds has more noise than the Rb source. So a voltage ramped 1000B should be very clean below 500 seconds.

Have Fun,

Brooke

I was thinking of using a Datum 1000B Ultra Stable Oscillator (the one used in the FTS 4060 Cesium standard). The data sheet says that after a few years the aging rate gets down to parts in E-12/day. I would think that the Allan plot would be cleaner if the control voltage was well behaved than if it was derived from a noisy process like GPS or maybe Cesium.


The 1000B makes a good standalone standard.

What tau range of the Allan plot were you thinking
of making cleaner?

Note that frequency standards like the HP 105B
use a very clean control voltage: a 10k pot.
