[time-nuts] A Symmtricom GPSDO Board

2016-06-05 Thread Arthur Dent
I have two similar Symmetricom GPSDO boards
but with a slightly different parts layout
that were manufactured in about 2012. The
OCXO in the first one is 4.1950 Mhz and there
is a 10 Mhz VCO next to it.

The second one has a Symmetricom SA22-c
Rb oscillator. The large blank spot in question
is for the version of these that would have
the Rubidium oscillator and the copper foil
is part of the heat sink for that version.

I haven’t checked the output frequency of
the SA22-c but it is probably the same as
the OCXO version.

Perhaps a location for an alternate receiver used in another model/version that 
shared the same PCB albeit populated with different OCXOs etc?.
Interesting that 2 ocxos appear to be in use.

I thought the same but it looks like there is only 4 holes and quite oversized 
at that, more like mounting holes, so suspect it is a area for a sub board.

There is a small metal shield in the upper right with some coax coming out of 
it.  It says FURUNO.  They make GPS stuff.

Google finds:

These are my opinions.  I hate spam.
