Earth shattering news for GNSS, commercial availability of Chip Scale Atomic Clock (CSAC)
Mxsmanic wrote:
How sensitive are these CSACs to other environmental variables? What about shock, or position? Are they robust enough to be used in wris****ches and portable timepieces (disregarding cost)? Which reminds me: why are there no wris****ches that use GPS just for a time reference, without the geolocation functions? Or are there? Seems like there'd be a market for such watches to replace "radio-controlled" watches depending on WWVB and the like, if the price isn't too high. They wouldn't need a CSAC, although that would be a nice bonus. Radio controlled watches do the same thing more cheaply, and work in most of the inahabited world, at a much lower power consumption. There would be at best a small niche market for such a thing, Jan |
