Re: [USRP-users] 2x N200 GPSDO PPS relative drift

Hi Stephan, I'm not sure if moving the power resolved your issue, but I wanted to follow up now that we have completed our root cause analysis. The GPSDO requires a minimum of 5.7V to retain accuracy and the voltage on J509 is dropping below that during TX and/or RX. The resolution is to first

Thanks for the tip Michael. I'm on travel at the moment, and will try this next week when I get back to the lab. I'll report my findings to mailing list. Cheers Stephan On Wed, Nov 14, 2018 at 1:09 AM Michael West wrote: > Hi Stephan, > > Try moving the GPSDO power from the J509 connector to

Hi Stephan, Try moving the GPSDO power from the J509 connector to the J102 connector on the N200 motherboard. J102 is 6V AUX power and does not sag when running. The provided cable is a little short, so you will have to get creative. Give that a try and let us know if it solves the problem.

Hi Robin, Thank you for the reply. I have debugged the problem more and realized two issues. 1) The massive drift of 14 microseconds/second was due me using a 6V, 2A brick supply. This is my fault! After switching it out for a 3A supply, I'm able to get the GPSDO to lock (GPS_SERVO message

Hi Stephan. Your issue looks similar to one that has been previously reported. The Hardware Sustaining Engineering team is currently investigating. Would it be possible for you to try powering the GPSDO module from a lab supply instead of plugging it in to the N210 motherboard and checking if
