[time-nuts] PRS10 1 PPS Out having random phase jumps

[Bob Camp]

Hi

How big are the jumps? Are they all N x some integer ns ?

If so, then yes, I’ve seen Rb’s that do exactly that. The answer is a defective 
divider chip.

I have tried opening up the enclosure I mounted the PRS10 in to cool it.  I can measure the temperature of the case at about 40dC.  Well below it's spec, I think.  And, no, the 1PPS IN is not being used to discipline the outputs.  I can send along a .tim file showing the jumps to anyone who is interested and sends me their email.
