Guys, First off, what I am about to do is ask a REALLY STUPID question, but more and more of the GPS stuff I do is drifting towards the precision timing end of things, so I thought I should ask.
I have been seeing a lot of traffic concerning making 10MHz frequency dividers using PIC's. While they provide an elegant solution to providing an accurate 1PPS from a precision source, I have to ask if there is a reason for going this route? I am just using three HCT40103 down counters hooked to a DS4000 to get what I think is a very stable 1PPS. Am I missing something? I realize 40103's are as old as dirt (I guess I am showing my 4000 series CMOS days), but the HCT series have plenty of bandwidth. Please be gentle....
