I have one of these same exact modules which I purchased to use as a TXCO that I could then lock to an external standard in an HP Agilent 5314A Universal counter. My project hasn't moved beyond a very preliminary planning stage at the moment pending some more information on the device.
I haven't been able to turn up much more than what the seller includes with the module being a simple diagram and instructions. I have yet to hook it up to power and see what it does. If you manage to dig up some more info on the device I would appreciate having it as well.

It's an un-used Motorola part. Maybe there is something better? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280567398921&ssPageNa me=STRK:MEWAX:IT I want to use them in a portable (battery powered) freq reference along with a chain of divide by 10 chips. I think at first I'll set it with a screw driver but I'd like to build an automatic feature using a microcontroller that syncs the portable reference to a lab oscillator that is running off GPS. My idea is that you connect it for a few minutes or over night. -- ===== Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
