General Description
The Connor-Winfield Stratum 3 Simplified Control Timing Mod-ule acts as a complete system clock module for general Stratum 3 timing applications. The MSTM is designed to replace similar units from TF Systems (TF118B) and Raltron (SY0001B).
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 Run. Table #1 illustrates the control signal inputs and corresponding opera-tional states.
In the absence of External Control Inputs (A,B), the MSTM enters the Free Run mode and signals an External Alarm. The MSTM will enter other operating modes upon application of a proper control signal. Mode 1 operation (A=1, B=0) results in an output signal that is phase locked to the External Reference Input #1. Mode 2 operation (A=0, B=1) results in an output sig-nal that is phase locked to External Reference Input #2. Hold-over 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 MSTM.Free Run ModeFree Run mode operation (A=0, B=0) is a guar-anteed output of 4.6 ppm of the nominal frequency.
Alarm signals are generated at the Alarm Output during Hold-over and Free Run operation. Alarm Signals are also generated by Loss-of-Lock and Loss-of-Reference conditions. A high level indicates an alarm condition. Real-time indication of the opera-tional mode is available at unique operating mode outputs on pins 1-4.
Control loop 0.1 Hz filters effectively attenuate any reference jitter, smooth out phase transients, comply with wander transfer and jitter tolerances.

Solder Clearance Figure 15
VIA KEEP OUT AREA:
It is recommended that there be no vias or feed throughs underneath the main body of the module between the pins. It is suggested that the traces in this area be kept to a minimum and protected by a layer of solder mask. See Figure 17.
SOLDER MASK:
A solder mask is recommended to cover most the top pad to avoid excessive solder underneath the shoulder of the pin to avoid rework damage. See Table 6 and Figure 18.
PAD CONSTRUCTION:
The recommended pad construction is shown in Figure 17. For the pin diameter of .040” a hole diameter of .055” is suggested for ease of insertion and rework. A pad diameter of .150” is also suggested for support. This leaves a spacing of .050” between the pads which is sufficient for most signal lines to pass through.
PAD ARRAY AND PAD SPACING:
The pins are arranged in a dual-in-line
configuration as shown in Figure 17. There is .2”space between the pins in-line and each line is separated by 1.6”. See Figures 16 & 17 and T able 6.
MECHANICAL OUTLINE:
The mechanical outline of the MSTM-S3-TR is shown in Figure 16. The board space required is 2” x 2”. The pins are .040” in diameter and are .150” in length. The unit is spaced off the PCB by .030”shoulders on the pins. Due to the height of the device it is recommended to have heat sensitive devices away where the air flow might not be blocked.
MODULE BAKEOUT:
Do not bakeout the MSTM-S3-TR
WASHING RECOMMENDATIONS:
The MSTM-S3-TR is not in a hermetic enclosure.It is recommended that the leads be hand cleaned after soldering. Do not completely immerse the module.
SOLDERING RECOMMENDATIONS:
Due to the sensitive nature of this part, hand soldering or wave soldering of the pins is recommended after reflow processes.
POWER SUPPLY REGULATION:
Good power supply regulation is recommended for the MSTM-S3-TR The internal oscillators are regulated to operate from 4.75 - 5.25 volts. Large jumps within this range may still produce varying degrees of wander. If the host system is subject to large voltage jumps due to hot-swapping and the like,it is suggested that there be some form of external regulation such as a DC/DC converter.
GROUND AND POWER SUPPLY LINES:
Power specifications will vary depending primarily on the temperature range. At wider temperature ranges starting at 0 to 70 deg. C., an ovenized
oscillator, OCXO, will be incorporated. The turn-on current for an OCXO requires a peak current of about .4A for about a minute. The steady state current will the vary from 50-150 mA depending on the temperature. It is suggested to plan for the peak current in the power and ground traces pin 18 and pin 5. The other four ground pins 10, 12, 14, and 16are intended for signal grounds.
