Time Base (Crystal Oscillator)
Choice of:
–
Uncompensated crystal oscillator (order no
PM 6669/.1.)
– MTCXO, i.e. Mathematically Temperature Compen-
sated Crystal Oscillator (order no PM 6669/.3.). The
MTCXO can be ordered separately for later upgrading
of the counter (option PM 9607).
MTCXO Working Principle: The temperature of the
crystal is measured. The built-in microprocessor calcu-
lates the frequency deviation for that particular tempera-
ture from a stored table. The measuring result is mathe-
