The onboard oscillator is phase-locked to a wide variety of external timing signals and provides 5ns
resolution to the time keeping hardware. The oscillator also “freewheels” to maintain time accuracy in
the absence of a reference. For applications where “holdover” is essential, an ovencontrolled crystal
oscillator (OCXO) is available for higher accuracy.
Four user-programmable time tag inputs may be used for multiple event capture at a rate higher
than 10,000 events per second. Additionally, four programmable time match/frequency outputs are
provided. Other features include two unique time code outputs, multiple programmable squarewaves
or “heartbeats,” multiple programmable “alarm” time match start/stop time outputs, a 10 MHz sine
wave output, and a 1PPS output.
Key to the TSync functionality is the ability to generate interrupts. Using a Spectracom driver package
available for the latest versions of popular operating systems, you may congure your card using
interrupt-driven algorithms to support your unique applications.
The TSync-PCIe is the rst timing board to offer eld upgradeability. If you require a timing function
after the initial deployment, let us know.

• PCIe x1 Local Bus Operation

The TSync-PCIe, with optional GPS, is a complete synchronized time code reader/generator package
offering exibility and easy integration of precise timing into an embedded computing application.
It supports multiple prioritized timing inputs. When an input is lost, the unit automatically switches to
the next input.
