[time-nuts] UCCM GPSDO
Does anyone know the origin of the "UCCM" designation for the Trimble GPSDO boards recently popular here? Is "UCCM" a valid model number, is it an acronym or is it something else? I've packaged several of these Trimble boards and I've seen about four others, none of which was marked "UCCM." I've seen one on-line picture of a packaged board that shows a separate label with "UCCM" marked. GPSCon already supports these "UCCM" boards and the next release of Lady Heather is expected to support them also, so there is some acceptance of this "UCCM" designation. But, what is the origin of this term and is it valid? -- Best wishes, Larry McDavid W6FUB Anaheim, California (SE of Los Angeles, near Disneyland) ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.

Re: [time-nuts] UCCM GPSDO
I think the designation "UCCM" actually applies to the Symmetricom GPSDO boards. Since most of these tend to come salvaged from China, tongue in cheek I suspect "Unusable, Crushed, Cr_p, Mangled" Do the Trimble units report UCCM from the serial port? -=Bryan=- From: time-nuts on behalf of Tim Lister Sent: December 4, 2016 3:00 PM To: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement Subject: Re: [time-nuts] UCCM GPSDO On Sun, Dec 4, 2016 at 2:50 PM, Larry McDavid wrote: > Does anyone know the origin of the "UCCM" designation for the Trimble GPSDO > boards recently popular here? > > Is "UCCM" a valid model number, is it an acronym or is it something else? > > I've packaged several of these Trimble boards and I've seen about four > others, none of which was marked "UCCM."

Mine does and it was sold as a 'Trimble Inside'... Lady Heather identifies it as a Trimble board and it doesn't seem to lose the survey position on power-off, which I believe is a feature of the Symmetricom version of the boards. I think the Symmetricom boards also report 'UCCM-P >' as their prompt (based on the eevblog thread) which mine doesn't (just 'UCCM >'). > > -=Bryan=- > Cheers, Tim ___ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.

Hi I’d bet it’s an inventory label put on by their customer. If so a good bet would be something like China Unicom.

Re: [time-nuts] UCCM GPSDO
The UCCM modules came from Samsung WiMAX radio systems. It looks like they OEM'd the boards from both Trimble and Symmetricom. "UCCM = Universal Core Clock Module" UCCM-P = "Universal Core Clock Module - Plus". I managed to find a system description document that mentions it two or three times. No details, though.

Re: [time-nuts] UCCM GPSDO
I was trying to guess what acronym (or backronym) UCCM might stand for. Then I did an E-bay search and found all the PC boards with "94V-0" in their part numbers for sale E-bay. Ha!

Re: [time-nuts] UCCM GPSDO
Well, that actually helped a little. I dug a little further into the system documentation, and while there is only a smattering of information on the UCCM itself, I was able to find that the alarm parameters for them dictate a 5.2-5.8v supply range, so THAT finally definitively answers one of the things that’s only been guessed at before. I also found a statement of ‘Stability: .02 ppm’, with no other qualification. If I find anything more of interest I’ll post it.
