The cesium beam standard used was a Hewlett- Packard 5060A and the hydrogen maser was a Varian H-10. Figure 1 shows the system block diagram for the measurement of fx, a frequency which is 31 Mc below the output frequency of the maser and phase locked to the maser. The 31 Mc difference ...
Microchip offers cesium beam tube replacement for all Microchip cesium instruments and many models of cesium instruments formerly manufactured by Hewlett-Packard®, Agilent® and Datum® and Symmetricom. Includes Installation Kit: Complete kits include key electrical parts, bracket adapters, as well as detailed retrofit and alignment procedures.
Renew and restore the performance of your original cesium instrument, while extending the lifespan at a fraction of the cost of replacing new equipment. Microsemi's high or standard performance replacement cesium beam tubes meet or exceed the original performance levels when all other components of the instrument perform to original specifications.

5071A Cesium Frequency Standard. Frequency Accuracy up to ±5e-13. Long term stability up 1e-14. Up to 6 RF and 3PPS outputs. Up to 2 1PPS inputs. Battery backup and Time of Day. 10 year warranty on standard tubes. 5 year warranty on high performanc tubes. MTBF: >160,000 hours.
I recently completed some comparison tests of the PPS and 10 MHz outputs of 17 different GPSDOs. The tests were done with a TAPR TICC time interval counter running in timestamp mode and the data was acquired and processed with Lady Heather. The TICC was clocked by a HP-5071A cesium beam oscillator with the high-performance tube.
The CPLD is a frequency divider, which takes as input a 60 MHz 2.8 Vpp sine wave input from the VCXO, which goes into CPLD pin 64. Pin 22 has a 30 MHz square wave. Some FE5680A units reportedly have a 1 us wide 1 PPS (1 pulse …
Atomic Clock - A precision clock that depends for its operation on an electrical oscillator regulated by the natural vibration frequencies of an atomic system (as a beam of cesium atoms). Atom - The smallest particle of an element that can exist either alone or in combination; the atom is considered to be a source of vast potential energy. Cesium 133 - An isotope of cesium …

KO4BB Wiki Trace: • fts ... Here are the pinouts of the FTS 2000A OCXO jumper board in my 4060M/S24 cesium beam unit. This board makes the 2000A look like a Datum 1000 OCXO. Datum 1000 pinouts and definitions are from Brooke Clark's PRC68.COM web site. The FTS-2000A coax connects to an SMB connector.

EEVblog #423 - HP5061A Atomic Clock Cesium Beam Frequency Standard. A look at one of the original HP 5061A Cesium Beam atomic clock frequency standards used in the "flying clocks" experiment in the 1960's, that showed (not definitely at the time) that time dilation as part of Einstein's relatively theory was correct.
The caesium standard is a primary frequency standard in which the photon absorption by transitions between the two hyperfine ground states of caesium-133 atoms is used to control the output frequency. The first caesium clock was built by Louis Essen in 1955 at the National Physical Laboratory in the UK. and promoted worldwide by Gernot M. R. Winkler of the United States Naval Observatory.
