Design Calculations Atomic Clock Receiver
Spring 2005, Team #4 Atomic Clock Receiver BLOCK 1 – Amplifier Design Calculations A loop antenna was chosen to be used in this project due to it’s small size and low cost. Assumptions made: Antenna voltage output => V = 10 µV RF field strength => E = 100 µV/m Angle between the plane of the loop and the signal source => θ = 0° Area of loop => A = 0.25 in2 Wavelength of operation => λ = 5000 m Q of loop => Q = 80 Permeability of an available ferrite rod => µrod = 850

Spring 2005, Team #4 Atomic Clock Receiver BLOCK 1 – Amplifier Design Calculations Equation used to design loop antenna without ferrite core => V = (2π* A * N * E * cos θ) / λ The minimum number of turns required would be: N = 493,381 turns The number of turns that be required are unrealistic, therefore, a ferrite core was decided to be used in the antenna.

Using a ferrite core in the antenna
Spring 2005, Team #4 Atomic Clock Receiver BLOCK 1 – Amplifier Using a ferrite core in the antenna The ferrite core reduces the reluctance of the antenna which increases the amount of flux into the antenna.

Spring 2005, Team #4 Atomic Clock Receiver BLOCK 1 – Amplifier Design Calculations The equation used to determine the corrected permeability was µ’ = µrod * 3(lcore / lcoil) The corrected permeability equation used is µ’ = 850 * 3(2 / (N * 1.57) The equation used to find the minimum number of turns needed in the antenna is V = (2π * A * N * µ’ * Q * E) / λ The minimum number of turns needed in the antenna is N = 17.3 turns The more turns added to the antenna will increase the output voltage.

Other De-bounce Types Hysteresis gate after switch
Spring 2005, Team #4 Atomic Clock Receiver BLOCK 5 – User Interface Other De-bounce Types Hysteresis gate after switch Hoping that the gates input hysteresis will pull input up through threshold But will cause rail-rail switching Placing Flip-Flop after the switch hoping that the flip-flop’s feedback will cause it to change state on the first bounce. Subject to Murphy’s law and works 99% of the time Energy is enough to change state but not enough to adhere to flip-flop setup time Software Debounce

De-bounce Circuit Design
Spring 2005, Team #4 Atomic Clock Receiver BLOCK 5 – User Interface De-bounce Circuit Design Switch open: charges capacitor Switch closed: capacitor discharges through R2 Key is to have bounce stop before the gate reaches input threshold Otherwise RC must be greater then bounce time

De-bounce Calculations
Spring 2005, Team #4 Atomic Clock Receiver BLOCK 5 – User Interface De-bounce Calculations measured time until the gate reaches its threshold voltage is a bit longer than predicted because the switch bounce prolongs the capacitor discharge time TB=1 msec Vth=0.55VCC, R2C=1.67(10^-3) C=0.1 uF R2=16.7 kohms hysteresis gate has a threshold voltage of 0.45 to 0.55 times VCC. R2C filter causes the gate voltage to have a slow fall time. Slow rise or fall times keep the gate in its low-noise-immunity- threshold region for a long time, so you need hysteresis to pull the input out of the threshold the first time the gate switches

EE 595 – Atomic Clock Receiver
The Prototype Ned Storer

Integration of Prototype
The prototype integration was chosen to be a simple PCB. A breadboard was not chosen due the high levels of noise present in a breadboard. The ground plane on the PCB will highly reduce noise. The component technology chosen for the prototype was Surface Mount whenever it was possible.

Prototype Cost and PCB Area
Total Cost for Prototype Materials = $276.17 Cost for prototype parts was higher than needed due low quantities and due to minimum purchase quantities Cost for prototype components = $217.17

Prototype Cost and PCB Area
To reduce the cost of the prototype PCBs, a silkscreen was not used. To help further reduce costs, solder masks were also not used on the prototype PCB. Area of PCB -> 3.8” X 2.5” = 9.5” Cost for prototype PCB’s = $59.00
