Description
■ A GPS disciplined OCXO incorporating a GPS receiver unit to
give 1PPS and 10MHz output. With 1.5µs holdover stability
achieved by using an adaptive algorithm. Standard NMEA0183
data is available to the user via a serial port.
■ Model IQCM-110
■ Model Issue number 1
■ Working States (Reference Drawing):
Run1: Fast track. Adjust the OCXO 10MHz output frequency
quickly to track the GPS.
Run2: Slow track. Adjust the OCXO 10MHz output frequency
slowly when phase error is in the defined range.
Holdover: No GPS input present; an algorithm enables
adaptive modelling of the frequency stability of an OCXO with
reference to the GPS timing signal.
Free Run: Clock module powered up with no GPS input.
■ NMEA Data Words:
The following standard GNSS data is available to the user via
the interface on pin 6 and pin 7: GPRMC, GPVTG, GPGGA,
GPGSA, GPGSV, GPGLL, GPZDA. These are broadcast every
second in sync with the 1PPS output.
Note 1: The IQCM-110 should be left powered and running for
7 days minimum before operation to allow for the OCXOs
internal drift to stabilise.
■ Note 2: The adaptive module algorithm can be built after two
days operation with good GPS signal, however this data will be
lost at power down.
Note 3: When State Input (Pin 8) is set low the IQCM-110 will
operate in Holdover mode regardless of the 1PPS signal
condition.
