Hello:
I'm looking for some advice about ways I can compare the frequency of two
gpsdo's. To date I have been using an oscilloscope that supports phase
measurements to measure the small (typically 10 degreees or so at 10 mhz)
change in phase between the two signals over a period of a few hours and then
calculating the frequency change.
I realize this is sub optimal but I wanted to use the gear on hand. Recently
the phase measurement fuction of my scope has stopped working.
As the useage I have ever found for the phase measurement function in my scope
was comparing the frequencies between gpsdo's I'm thinking it might be better
to invest in some other equipment rather then getting the scope fixed.
Any thoughts as to what could be obtained used for less than 1K that would be
suited for this type of measurement ?
Have a look at the PICTIC II. If you feel like going further down the
steep end, the DMTD kit would be a solution. Both assumes you are
willing to do some soldering and source components yourself.
As for my own sake, the DMTD PCB kit sits here and I need to source the
remaining components. Something to do a dark November weekend. Hm. I'll
have a go at it.
Cheers,
Magnus
