Hello,

I am building a high-end testbed and trying to decide on a 10 MHz distribution option.  I've used octoclock for other systems and it 'works.'  However the datasheet is pretty sparse.  Does anyone have detailed specs (that you measured or from Ettus).  I am interested in the non-GPSDO version since my 10 MHz comes from outside the system

  * port-to-port delay variation
  * phase noise increase if any (assuming external source)

My other option is https://endruntechnologies.com/products/distribution/10-MHz-low-phase-noise, which is about 5x more expensive.

Thanks.


Clock is distributed via a CDCE18005 chip, made by TI.   This chip is specifically designed for low-phase-noise clock   distribution, and the trace layout on the board was designed to minimize delay variation.

The 1PPS is buffered with a pair of 7404-type hex inverters, with one inverter per package acting to invert the input,
  prior to it being inverted again on each output channel.

I don't know that actual measured specs have been published for it.

Schematics are here:
