There are significantly different architectures for what are known as “atomic” clocks. Optically driven atomic clocks offer a new set of performance attributes. The optical atomic clocks use paired ...

The AD9548 clock generator/synthesizer is the first clock IC that lets designers use the standard, free 1-pulse/s signal of GPS satellites to generate and synchronize clock signals for communications ...

Physicists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and partners have demonstrated an experimental, next-generation atomic clock--ticking at high "optical" frequencies--that is ...

Over the past couple of decades, more and more applications are going digital. Implementation of digital systems is very simple as it is entirely about logic; however, complexity increases ...
