Hi, I can think of at least one excellent use for the unwanted 63.8976MHz OCXO that comes free with some of the recently offered FE-5680A units.
It would make a great reference for a DDS synthesizer, such as an AD9852/AD9854. These chips have a 4x reference multiplier capability, and thus would provide a clock at ~256MHz. How useful it would be to have a DDS synthesized signal generator with sub-milliHz steps, low phase noise, controllable phase and output level, and 0 - 100MHz output capability! 73, Murray ZL1BPU _______________________________________________ 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.
