In the quest for an accurate frequency standard there are many options depending on your budget, but one of the most affordable is an oven controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO). [RF Burns] has a video ...

Do you remember your first instrument, the first device you used to measure something? Perhaps it was a ruler at primary school, and you were taught to see distance in terms of centimetres or inches.

In my previous design idea, a design for a simple GPS disciplined oscillator (GPSDO) 10 MHz reference was presented. A note at the end of that article describes the realization that a frequency ...

Get to really know the fundamentals behind your test equipment. Not only do you reap the most out of your scopes, etc. as well as avoid debugging traps—it can also facilitate a “spec hack.” Everyone ...

The circuit was designed to create a frequency generator that consists of 7 steps during the operation. Crystal Oscillator – an electronic circuit made of one or more crystals or quartz located in the ...

In frequency counters, the gating time allotted for counting is often too short to resolve low frequencies. A phase-locked loop could be used to multiply the input frequency. But in some cases, the ...
