It does have an external reference input..
There's not a lot of info on the Mirics data sheets (or on the sdrplay 
website)


It sort of looks like this is a somewhat enhanced version of the parts 
used in the RTL-SDR dongles.

(10 bit ADC, instead of 8 bits in the RTL2832)

And of course it needs 24MHz because it has to run the USB interface.

10 bit ADC means that you probably don't need *outstanding* clock 
performance - the sample and hold and all the other timing logic is 
probably designed to that sort of performance level - getting 
femtosecond jitter probably isn't worth it.



If you're just looking for a 24 MHz driver that doesn't need to be 
locked to anything, one of the SiTime modules would work, or you could 
probably order a TCXO for 24 MHz - it's a standard frequency (viz. USB), 
so it's almost certainly available from stock

This should injection lock the crystal to right frequency.

[time-nuts] Suggestions on getting 24 MHz?

2018-04-13 Thread Perry Sandeen via time-nuts
Esteemed List Members,
I have four new Midland glass encased 3.00 MHz HC 6 case style available.  
Each one was given a S/N and were ordered for Hallicrafters circa.  Ovenized 
they would be excellent although I don't now what oven temp was specified.  
Best guess is 85 C.
I can send world wide.
If interested please send and email directly to me at sandeenpa at yahoo dot

Re: [time-nuts] suggestions on getting 24 Mhz ?

2018-04-11 Thread Tom Van Baak
Pete,

Is your goal to make SDR frequency measurements? One solution: grab any 24 MHz 
oscillator you find but use a counter with known accurate timebase 
(Rb,Cs,GPSDO) to continuously record its actual frequency. Don't adjust the 
frequency; just record it. Then, apply those readings as corrections to your 
SDR measurements. This software (or pencil & paper) correction method should 
give equivalent results as an atomic- or GPS-disciplined 24 MHz timebase.

I am using the single output Bodnar GPSDO driving a frequency locked Wenzel
low phase noise oscillator and using that for my SDR ADC clock. I am using
it to take phase noise measurements and it certainly is as good as the
references I have available, and matches pretty well with measurements on a
$90k phase noise meter.

The Wenzel eliminates far out spurs from the GPSDO. Note that different
register values may result in the same frequency output of the GPSDO, but
spurs can be very different. For some frequencies and with the right
register values, I expect the GPSDO alone may be good enough for an SDR
clock, but I have not tried.

This is the best I can measure with this setup. I think the ADC noise
limits the far out phase noise.

Offset   Phase Noise
(Hz)   (dBc/Hz)
10 -96.9
20   -103.0
50   -106.9
100 -109.7
200 -117.7

It’s probably well worth looking into exactly what you are after in terms of 
phase noise, 
spurs, and stability *before* deciding on a solution. In some cases things like 
DDS spurs
are a non-issue. In other cases phase noise at certain offsets is a really big 
deal, but at
other offsets … it’s a non-issue.

Re: [time-nuts] suggestions on getting 24 Mhz ?

2018-04-11 Thread Graham / KE9H
Phase noise is (usually) more important than absolute frequency accuracy.

I suggest some kind of low phase noise master oscillator (OCXO) feeding a
DDS without an internal multiplier.

If internal multiplier in DDS, that, rather than the frequency reference
source will set the phase noise floor of the sampling.

Re: [time-nuts] suggestions on getting 24 Mhz ?

For and RSP?  I used an HP 3325 locked to my Cs beam and took the signal from 
the back.  I think I paid no more than $100 for the 3325a and one I got for 
free.

Regards,

Jerry

Re: [time-nuts] suggestions on getting 24 Mhz ?

2018-04-11 Thread Jimmy D. Burrell
Hi Pete,

Speaking from limited experience, I wonder if a garden variety OCXO at say 10 
MHz + some CMOS logic to act as a frequency multiplier might not fit the build? 
 Then again, perhaps 24MHz is a little fast for the logic chips.. not sure.

Hope this helps spark some discussion.

I assume you mean derived from a high quality 10 MHz.

some sort of discrete divide multiply?   divide by 5 multiply by 12?
A PLL with VCXO with good far out noise?  (sort of like "clean up loops" 
used for distributing 10 or 100 MHz )

A DDS (with internal multiplier)
