In the power generation industry, accurate time-keeping by supervisory control systems is of utmost importance. Operational failures can propagate rapidly across plant systems and trigger a chain ...

Here on Earth, it might not matter if your wristwatch runs a few seconds slow. But crucial spacecraft functions need accuracy down to one billionth of a second or less. Navigating with GPS, for ...

NASA and the Italian Space Agency achieved a first on the lunar surface earlier this year when their joint experiment locked onto Earth-based GPS signals from the Moon, producing a navigation fix that ...

Adva has extended the capabilities of its compact Oscilloquartz PTP timing technology to enable power utility and broadcast networks to achieve sub-microsecond synchronization. Now electricity ...

Building a universal clock generator would provide extremely accurate timing for GPS satellites and GPS Ground Segment in order for GPS users to be aware of their Earth position. The types of clock ...

We’ve gotten used to the fact that the clocks on our internet-connected computers and smartphones are always telling the right time. Time servers, provided by a variety of government agencies as well ...

Analog Devices Inc. (ADI) (Weybridge, UK) has introduced a clock IC that enables system designers to use the standard, readily available and free 1-pps (pulse-per-second) signal of GPS (global ...
