miconghs

Posted on Feb 6, 2014

The Micon-GHS clock is a very accurate handy clock for mobile observation with some intelligent facilities. `Note that `Micon` is a short form for `Microcomputer` in Japanese. `The clock was operated by referring the GPS (Global Positioning System) signal, so that it can attain the accurate timing near as the atomic clock operates. An onboard exc

lusive micro chip (PIC16F873) makes it possible to monitor the information of geodesic information (Longitude, Latitude, etc. ) on demand. Real-time display mode of some astronomical times (apparent solar time, Greenwich sidereal time, local sidereal time, hour angle of Polar star) is also available. Onboard devices are operated by 5 V DC charge. However, the "Micon-GHS clock" has a DC-DC converter from 12 V DC to 5 V DC (1. 5 W) for useful power supply, so that we can use it with connection to car battery (cigar lighter). = Detailed specifications of the "Micon-GHS clock" (ver. 2. 1) Voltage of power supply: 10 V DC to 18 V DC Power consumption: 1. 5 W (maximum) Accuracy of timing sync. : within 500 ns *Note that response of LED device has a delay about 40 micro seconds or so, experimentally. Time signal output method: LED beat (flasher), 2 lines 7 segments LED, speaker tone, line output Forenotice of minute signal: LED beat (flasher), speaker tone, line output Display of timing information: Year, Month, Date, Hour, Minute, Second (UTC sync. ) Display of geodesy information: Longitude, Latitude, Height of receiver antenna, Height of Geoid, Acquisition number of GPS satellites, HDOP value, Condition of GPS positioning Accuracy of positioning: within 10 m horizontally, but with a few 10 m error vertically Display of astronomical time: Apparent solar time, Greenwich sidereal time, Local sidereal time, Hour angle of the Polar...
