NAC1 Nano Atomic Clock

Rubidium Frequency Oscillator

The NAC1 Atomic Clock is the latest and most compact addition to our Rubidium Frequency Standard lineup. Utilizing proven traditional glass technology and based on the Coherent Population Trapping (CPT) principle, the NAC1 is an ultra-small, board-mounted atomic clock designed for seamless integration into various systems.

The NAC1 delivers both 10 MHz and 1PPS outputs, offering exceptional short-term stability with an Allan Deviation of 2E-11 at 100 seconds and an aging rate of 3E-10 per month at 25°C. It features an RS232 interface for monitoring and control, a Built-In Test (BIT) output, and a typical warm-up time of just 160 seconds.

With dimensions of 41.1 mm x 35.3 mm x 22 mm, a weight of only 75 grams, and power consumption under 1.2 watts, the NAC1 is an ideal solution for a broad range of portable applications. Compact, efficient, and reliable, the NAC1 sets a new benchmark for Rubidium atomic clocks in portable systems.
