Featured Solutions
An Innovative Architecture for Resilient Timing
Combining a high-precision atomic clock, GNSS-satellite-based timing and a trusted timescale, the virtual Primary Reference Time Clock (vPRTC) is a highly secure and resilient network-based timing architecture that has been developed to meet the expanding needs of modern critical infrastructures.
53100A Phase Noise Analyzer
The 53100A Phase Noise Analyzer can be used for measuring precision atomic clocks, quartz and other high-performance oscillators up to 200 MHz. The intuitive PC-based interface makes it easy to acquire frequency stability measurements including Allan Deviation (ADEV), phase noise, AM noise, jitter measurements and more. The small size, rapid acquisition time and backwards compatibility with the legacy 5120A series of phase noise analyzers make the 53100A easy to integrate into existing test infrastructure or for it to serve as the workhorse for high-performance metrology applications.
Better Undersea Sensing With Our CSAC
Sensors employed in undersea applications rely on precise timing to be effective. However, because time from GNSS is unavailable underwater, these sensors have generally relied on Oven-Controlled Crystal Oscillators (OCXOs) for stable and accurate time stamping within the sensor. Now, these sensors have a better option: our CSAC. Compared to OCXOs, our CSAC maintains higher accuracy for longer periods of time, uses less power and maintains a more stable frequency despite the wide variations in temperature that these sensors encounter.
Clockstudio™ Software Tool
Clockstudio software tool is a stand-alone Graphical User Interface (GUI) intended for communication and control of our atomic clock products. It allows you to view device status, information, documentation and product web pages. Supported devices include CSAC, LN-CSAC and MAC embedded clocks. The tool enables calibration, frequency adjustment, time of day, One Pulse Per Second (1PPS) disciplining and more.
