Most GPSDOs are driven with a 1Hz pulse. But I think maybe the OP is not building just any GPSDO but maybe he is looking to repair a specific GPSDO that is designed to use the old (and now rare) Rockwell GPS. If that is the case he needs the old Rockwell or needs to redesign his system. If you are starting from scratch to build a new GPSDO it's easier now. All you need is some kind of a phase detector (74HC4046 ?) and a small uP that has a good built-in DAC. The uP checks the phase once per second and adjusts it'sDAC accordingly. -- 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.
