I'm trying to square the 10Mhz output from a Thunderbolt GPSDO, and failing miserably. I'm still very new at this so please forgive my ignorance. I thought it was going to be easy. I have tried diodes, comparators, op-amps, Schmidt trigger buffers,regular buffers, inverters, and differential amplifier circuits. I must be missing something simple because i just can't shape the wave into a square wave. Has any one done this?
I concur with Bruce that most of these should work. More details about what you have tried (i.e., schematics), and what results you have gotten, will be necessary for us to be able to help you. (The list accepts small attachments.)
Meanwhile, here are two links you can peruse that give several shaping circuits (the second link is Bruce's work):
