The FTSU-100 is a high performance signal distribution
amplifier designed for use with the Brandywine model
PTS Precision Time System.
The versatile FTSU is designed to be a companion to
the PTS family of Precision Time Systems.

• Frequency Synthesizer Option
• 1PPS & Time Code outputs
• Hitless changeover of reference frequency

Applications for the FSTU include secure communications
systems, satellite ground stations and any system requiring highly reliable frequency, time code and pulse rate
outputs.

The FTSU-100 is contained in a compact IU rack-mount
chassis. The FTSU accepts two sets of inputs. The
inputs are the reference frequency, 1PPS, a time code
and status from the PTS. The FTSU provides automatic
changeover should one of the source inputs fail. Manual source select override is available on the front panel.
A variety of status indicators are located on the front
panel for visual feedback.
The low phase noise reference frequency outputs are
generated from a low phase noise oscillator that is
phase-locked to the reference frequency input. In the
event of reference input failure the phase-locked oscillator will continue to provide referenced frequency outputs with a stability of 3X10-9 over temperature.
