Timing Boards support PCI bus specification 3.0.
August 13, 2008 -
Suited for ultra low latency computer architectures, TPRO-PCI-66U and TSAT-PCI-66U bus-level timing boards offer zero latency time reads of precise time stamps. Model TPRO-PCI-66U synchronizes to master clock through IRIG and other time codes, while TSAT-PCI-66U uses GPS satellite system to synchronize to coordinated universal time without need of any local source of official time. PCI-X compliant boards run at 66 MHz bus speed with 32-bit data interface.

New Timing Boards Support the Most Time-Sensitive Applications
Low latency computer systems benefit from improved timing precision and integration tools
ROCHESTER, NEW YORK - Spectracom Corporation announces the availability of two new bus-level timing boards for ultra low latency computer architectures. The new models, TPRO-PCI-66U and TSAT-PCI-66U, enable accurate timing information into embedded, real-time computing environments. The new timing boards offer zero latency time reads of precise time stamps to benefit organizations that rely on extremely fast transactions across their computer networks to support critical operations.
According to Spectracom's Director of Engineering, Lou Orsini, "We understand the need for precise timing in critical network environments. The new PCI-66U boards provide the timing necessary to allow our customers to get the most out of their networks. This is particularly critical where fast and efficient computer networking is essential for a competitive advantage."
Key to the integration of precision bus-level timing into high performance systems is the availability of Spectracom's driver interfaces. Drivers for the PCI-66U boards greatly reduce start-up time and therefore reduce the total cost of integrating precise timing into applications. Drivers are available for operating systems such as Linux, Windows, and Solaris.
The precise time of the TPRO/TSAT-PCI-66U products are based on their ability to synchronize onboard clocks to an authoritative time source for accuracy. The model TPRO-PCI-66U synchronizes to a master clock through IRIG and other time codes. The model TSAT-PCI-66U leverages the GPS satellite system to synchronize to coordinated universal time without the need of a local source of official time.
The PCI-66U boards support PCI bus specification 3.0 and are PCI-X compliant. They are optimized to run at a 66 MHz bus speed with a 32-bit data interface that results in time reads on the order of one-millionth of a second. Their design and manufacturing processes provide for greater reliability and flexibility and are compliant to lead-free initiatives such as RoHS.
