OCXO's have specified temperature ranges for instance -40...+70°C for the heavy duty stuff. But I cant imagine the ovens used are so perfect that they have the same regulation performance at all temperatures. I can choose the exterior temperature, which I should prefer ? Disregard aging of electronics and materials, we all know that stuff, what I'm interested in is at which exterior temperature OCXO ovens work best ?
Here's my guess... 1) you want minimal gradients across the device for a variety of reasons 2) therefore you want least amount of heat from the heater 3) therefore somewhat below the setpoint of the heater. How far below? I've no idea. _______________________________________________ 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.
