The PMC-SyncClock32 from Brandywine Communications is an advanced Mezzanine Card (PMC) module. Precision time is provided to the host computer with zero latency. The onboard microprocessor automatically synchronizes the clock to reference signal inputs. The reference signal inputs handled by the PMC in its standard configuration are IRIG’s A and B, NASA 36 and 1 PPS. Alternatively, the clock in the PMC can be set using commands from host computer and free run using its on-board oscillator as the time base.
