PCIe has been around since 2004. It’s a high-speed serial computer expansion bus specification that replaces older PCI and PCI-X standards. PCIe currently supports the Generation 4 specification. In ...

Clock speed is equivalent to data movement in applications that receive and process hundreds of megabytes of data each second. Applications involved in moving enormous volumes of data include cellular ...

first half wave and a second half wave representing the received RF signal.

Nuclear clocks are the next big thing in ultra-precise timekeeping. Recent publications in the journal Nature propose a new method and new technology to build the clocks. Timekeeping has become more ...

The advantage of a radio-controlled clock that receives the time signal from WWVB is that you never have to set it again. Whether it’s a little digital job on your desk, or some big analog wall clock ...

External clock sources are not something I generally write about in this space, which is after all dedicated to SoC design. And that, according to SpectraLinear president and CEO Ilhan Refioglu, is ...

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 ...

The requirements of higher system bandwidth and resolution in a variety of applications from communications infrastructure to instrumentation drive up the demand for connecting multiple data ...
