Rubidium atom oscillator generating a stable frequency

A rubidium atom oscillator is not influenced by a circumference noise or the like, and is excellent in the short-term stability and the phase noise characteristic. A crystal oscillator oscillates a fixed frequency as an atomic resonance frequency. A direct digital synthesizer inputs an output of the crystal oscillator as a system clock and also inputs tuned data corresponding to an error signal generated according to a resonance frequency so as to carry out a variable control of an output frequency. A frequency synthesizer synthesizes and multiplies an output of the direct digital synthesizer and applies a phase modulation with a low-frequency signal. An atomic resonator inputs an output of the frequency synthesizer and detects an error signal with respect to a resonance frequency of rubidium atoms. A tuned-data generating circuit inputs the error signal from the atomic resonator so as to generate the tuned data corresponding to the error signal. The output frequency of the direct digital synthesizer is output from the rubidium atom oscillator.

In an atomic oscillator, a high-frequency converting circuit converts the output of a standard oscillator into a high frequency signal such that the frequency of the high frequency signal multiplied by a low natural number equals an atomic resonant frequency signal. The high frequency signal is then multiplied by a low natural number in an active, low-natural-number multiplier circuit to convert the output frequency of the standard oscillator into a resonant frequency to be input to the atomic oscillator. The result is that, without using a passive, high-natural-number multiplier circuit, such as a varactor diode, which is expensive, it is possible to convert the output frequency of the standard oscillator into a resonant frequency signal of a rubidium atom, thus downsizing the circuits of the atomic oscillator and reducing the term and cost of manufacture.
