Functional Description

The Clock Output module consists of the following five sections, as shown in
6-5:
Oscillator
Direct Digital Synthesizer (DDS)
Timing Circuitry
Module Control
The Oscillator provides a 10 MHz sinusoidal output signal for the DDS circuitry. The
type of oscillator varies depending on the Clock module. It may be a Rubidium
oscillator for the highest quality Stratum 2 performance, or various Quartz ovenized
oscillators for the lower quality levels. The output signal is buffered to provide a 10
MHz logic signal as a clock to the DDS circuitry. A separately buffered signal is
provided to the local oscillator (LO) output jacks on the rear panel of the main shelf
for connecting to external equipment such as a GPS receiver.
