[time-nuts] How to measure Allan Deviation?

[John Miles]

You can do a lot worse than straight TTL.  Some useful graphs on pages 102
and 103 of Rohde's "Microwave and Wireless Synthesizers: Theory and Design".

Hint: Look it up at www.amazon.com and you can view those two pages, if you
search within the book for the phrase "170 dB".
