+ | \\ | ||
+ | In case anyone else is shopping online for a used Motorola Oncore M12+T timing GPS, it's probably useful to know what I just learned: | ||
+ | |||
+ | Some online sellers offering "M12+T 100 pps GPS" may instead send you a M12 Navigation (non-timing) GPS. The differences: | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | \\ | ||
+ | Motorola Oncore M12 Navigation GPS: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Supports Motorola Binary and NMEA output | ||
+ | * does not have 100 Hz output | ||
+ | * does not have TRAIM (Timing Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitor) | ||
+ | * does not have sawtooth correction output | ||
+ | * 1 PPS <500 ns timing | ||
+ | |||
+ | Crystal nearest MMCX antenna connector is two-lead can style with bent leads for surface mounting\\ | ||
+ | example p/n label: P183T12N12 (final "N" = "Navigation"?) | ||

+ | Motorola Oncore M12+T Timing GPS: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Supports Motorola Binary output only | ||
+ | * 1 Hz or 100 Hz output selectable | ||
+ | * TRAIM (Timing Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitor) | ||
+ | * sawtooth correction ("clock granularity") message available | ||
+ | * 1 pps <2nS 1 Sigma, <6nS 6 Sigma (using sawtooth correction message) | ||
+ | * 1 pps <10nS 1 Sigma, <20nS 6 Sigma (without correction) | ||
+ | |||
+ | Smaller leadless surface-mount crystals\\ | ||
+ | example p/n label: P283T12T17 (final "T" = "Timing"?) | ||
