STRATUM 3 SIMPLIFIED CONTROL
TIMING MODULES (MSTM-S3-T2NC-R)
Figꢀ 1
DESCRIPTION
The Connor-Winfield Stratum 3 Simplified Control
Timing Module acts as a complete system clock module for general
Stratum 3 timing applicationsꢀ The MSTM is designed for external
control functionsꢀ Full external control input allows for selection
and monitoring of any of four possible operating states: 1)
Holdover, 2) External Reference #1, 3) External Reference #2,
and 4) Free Runꢀ The table below illustrates the control signal
inputs and corresponding operational states:

In the absence of External Control Inputs (A,B), the
MSTM enters the Free Run mode and signals an External Alarmꢀ
The MSTM will enter other operating modes upon application of
a proper control signalꢀ Mode 1 operation (A=1, B=0) results in
an output signal that is phase locked to the External Reference
Input #1ꢀ Mode 2 operation (A=0, B=1) results in an output signal
that is phase locked to External Reference Input #2ꢀ Holdover
mode operation (A=1, B=1) results in an output signal at or near
the frequency as determined by the latest (last) locked-signal input
values and the holdover performance of the MSTMꢀ In Free Run
mode, operation (A=0, B=0) is a guaranteed output of 4ꢀ6 ppm of
the nominal frequencyꢀ

Alarm signals are generated at the Alarm Output during
Holdover and Free Run operationꢀ Alarm Signals are also
generated by loss-of-lock, loss of Reference, and by a Tune-Limit
indication from the PLLꢀ A Tune-Limit alarm signal indicates
that the VCXO tuning voltage is approaching within 10% the limits
of its lock capability and that the External Reference Input may
be erroneousꢀ A high level indicates an alarm conditionꢀ Real-
time indication of the operational mode is available at unique
operating mode outputs on pins 1-4ꢀ
