I am doing some 3-cornered hat test runs with 3 of these tinyPFAs. They stay in sync pretty well, but at about 24 hours, one of the inputs is about 1 second off. Another is about .2 seconds off. So, how much impact does this have on the resulting plot?
I believe there may be a way to use a single clock to power all three units, but I haven't looked into it yet.
The test configuration is 3 tinyPFAs, 3 Mini-Circuits splitters, and associated cabling. The units under test are a Z3805A, an AT&T RFG-RB, and one of my GPSDOs. I had been using a Lucent RFTG pair but had to switch to my GPSDO due to the Lucent developing a bad case of phase spikes.
