Hi The 5334B event is commonly called a frequency jump. There is a fairly famous HP paper on testing for them that invokes the phrase “test to destruction” (if I remember correctly). They are seen in all OCXO’s if you watch enough parts long enough. They tend to increase in time between jumps as the unit runs. Put another way, after a long time power on, you will not see them. The first publication I saw them graphically documented in was a semiconductor app note from the 1960’s.
