Hello,

The B210 has separate connectors for a 1-PPS and 10-MHz reference.

But the B205 has only the one SMA connector, which is indicated to be dual
purpose (1-PPS or 10-MHz).

Is it possible connect both, using a GPIO pin for the 1-PPS?

If so, which pin?  How to enable?

Thanks,

Ken Clark
The B205 external clock apparatus is quite different than on other USRPs. Rather than having an analog clock PLL chip, there's
  a DPLL implemented in the FPGA.

That DPLL automatically "figures out" whether you have 1PPS or 10MHz coming into the external clock input--of which there is only one. Once it figures that out, it automatically steers the internal VCTCXO based on the estimates of the internal-to-FPGA DPLL.

My recollection is that you set PPS to "internal", and REFCLOCK to "external", and it will act appropriately.

You *could* re-jig the FPGA code to have both a 10Mhz reference, and a 1PPS coming in on a GPIO--but that isn't built in.
