Any worthwhile OCXO will need a loop with a time constant on the
order of hundreds of seconds (a corner frequency on the order of uHz)
to get the most out of it as a GPSDO. As has been discussed on the
list many times, there is simply no practicable way to design an
analog loop with such a long time constant. So the person designing
the PLL must be able to design and build an all-digital PLL, or
settle for a loop that crosses over to the GPS several decades too
early (which is certainly not getting the most out of the OCXO).
Best regards,
