Systems designers need to consider many factors when selecting a timing device for their application. Selecting an appropriate oscillator and clock architecture can improve the system performance and ...

WWV signals can be difficult to tune outside of certain hours and weather conditions. It's also fairly difficult to find WWV recievers that can easily plug into computers that aren't expensive bespoke ...

Hardware design in high-performance applications such as communications systems, wireless infrastructure, servers, broadcast video, and test and measurement equipment is becoming increasingly complex ...

Anyone who has suffered from jet lag or struggled after turning the clock forward or back an hour for daylight savings time knows all about what researchers call your biological clock, or circadian ...

Ever wondered how much timing margin your system really has? You’ve probably asked some questions along these lines, such as: Does my crystal really need 20 parts-per-million (ppm) accuracy? What if ...

The activation and inactivation mechanisms of a key protein involved in the circadian clock system of cyanobacteria -- an important organism in the evolution of such internal clocks -- have long ...

The NBA is teaming up with Swiss watchmaker Tissot to give a 21st-century update to an old and clunky piece of in-game tech: the basketball shot clock. The new clock is a thin, transparent panel ...
