Suppose I want to make a GPSDO using the 1PPS output of generic GPS device XYZ, what kind of accuracy should I be looking for?
I understand the concept of "smaller error is better", but I lack the practical experience and would like to get a handle on the actual numbers. When a GPS devide XYZ datasheet quotes a "timing accuracy" on the 1PPS output of lets say 1 us RMS, would it be useful? I.e would /you/ consider using it? What if it was 100 ns RMS on the 1pps? Or 10 ns RMS? Or ... At roughly what number would you consider the 1pps as a candidate for your GPSDO? regards, Fred _______________________________________________ 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.
