Gentlemen.
I am about to try to repair a second 5065Aand have now tested a number of 10811
Quartzoscillators that was in the junk box.
In order to test the 10811, I put them it in a chassisthat is used for
GPS-locking. Adjust for lockand then monitor the EFC-voltage over time.
Starting out with a lock condition and the EFCvoltage adjusted to -2.500V I can
see that theoscillators exhibit a monotonus EFC voltagedrift towards 0 volts.
About + 1 mV in 3 minutes.
By comparison, I have a 10811-60109that was tested in the same GPS-application
andthis unit is rock-steadyand that does not show any sign of EFC drift.
Test time has been 3 Days, and I beleive thata 10811 should have been able to
reachthermal equilibrium during this time.
I can and will (of course) take them apart.Anything special to look for other
thanthe usual signs of long-term over-heated discretes?
