Hi, Wayne! I'm very happy about the phase sync between the two rxs, that will be a lot of fun!
FYI - The Bodnar GPS unit outputs a programmable output including 10 MHz at various levels: Low-jitter GPS-locked precision frequency reference 450 Hz to 800 MHz output This device outputs two synchronised low-jitter reference clocks locked to GPS signal. Long term stability of output signal is defined by high accuracy of GPS Caesium references and theoretically approaches 1x10-12. Short term signal quality is defined by internal TCXO clock source providing high-quality, low phase noise clock signal with sub-picosecond RMS jitter. Digital PLL allows main output reference frequency to have almost any value between 450Hz and 800MHz. The second output frequency depends on the first output due to a common internal clock, if you need individual flexibility, multiple mini GPS units may be a better choice. If both outputs have the same frequency their relative phase shift can be adjusted. This can be used, for example, to generate two signals with 90° phase shift for use in I/Q mixer. Both output signals square wave at 3.3V CMOS levels with 50 Ohms characteristic impedance. Their output drive levels can be adjusted and outputs can be enabled and disabled independently. Output power level (measured at 10MHz, fundamental power channel): +13.3dBm, drive setting 32mA +12.7dBm, drive setting 24mA +11.4dBm, drive setting 16mA *Bill Hein* *Sound Business Strategies, LLC* *m 970-628-5120* *b...@soundbusiness.us <b...@soundbusiness.us>* *The information contained in this transmission may contain privileged and confidential information, including patient information protected by federal and state privacy laws.
