  • Page 3 9-13-16 1.0 Overview The NR3700-O/G is a GPS locked OCXO 10 MHz frequency reference with optional PPS and RS232. The unit features Auto-Calibration such that the most recent coefficients to compensate the OCXO for drift due to aging and/or temperature are stored and applied to the OCXO during GPS loss of lock conditions.
  • Page 4 The NR3700-O/G draws less than 10 Watts of power from a 12 VDC nominal source. An AC power adapter is available as an option to allow direct operation from standard AC power.
  • Page 5 Date: 9-13-16 2.0 Crystal Novus crystal based frequency reference products are based upon either TCXO or OCXO technology. Temperature compensated crystal oscillators will normally use an AT cut crystal and electronically compensate the device with temperature. An OCXO device uses a SC (stress compensated) crystal and the part is held at a fixed temperature to minimize temperature drift.
  • Page 6 Users manual NR3700-O/G Revision #: Date: 9-13-16 Over a broad temperature range, an AT performs very well and much easier to compensate electronically. It is also a simpler crystal to manufacture than a SC cut device. For applications where a stability of a few ppm is acceptable, a TCXO can be a cost effective alternative.
  • Page 7 Users manual NR3700-O/G Revision #: Date: 9-13-16 Typical OCXO Another alternative for a frequency reference is an atomic reference. These devices use a change in atomic state of an isotope of Cesium or Rubidium for stability. Instead of a stability of ±50 ppb/year for a typical OCXO - stability of ±1 ppb/year is very common.
  • Page 8 Users manual NR3700-O/G Revision #: Date: 9-13-16 Typical phase noise performance for a Rubidium source For applications requiring the stability of an atomic source but also requiring low phase noise, a low phase noise OCXO is disciplined to an atomic source. The phase noise for the NR2310-R/O has phase noise improved by well over 20 dB by this technique.
  • Page 9 Users manual NR3700-O/G Revision #: Date: 9-13-16 is used to discipline the timing device. Timing accuracy to a few ppb is readily achievable. The GNSS is used to provide timing for a DDS (direct digital waveform synthesizer). While the DDS has outstanding long-term accuracy, the short-term stability is very poor due to the nature of the timing source.

  • Page 15 Users manual NR3700-O/G Revision #: Date: 9-13-16 The receiver needs to be able to see at least four satellite vehicles (SVs) to obtain an accurate 3-D position fix. When travelling in a valley, or built-up area, or under heavy tree cover, you will experience difficulty acquiring and maintaining a coherent satellite lock.
  • Page 16 Users manual NR3700-O/G Revision #: Date: 9-13-16 To overcome these errors, the receiver then matches or “skews” its own code to become synchronous with the satellite signal. This is repeated for all satellites in turn, thus measuring the relative transit times of individual signals. By accurately knowing all satellite positions, and measuring the signal transit times, the user’s position can be...

This is usually a direct connection to the receiver. In addition to NMEA, Novus Products which provide an additional RS232 serial port for status monitoring, will be set up to meet the following protocols.
