The TimeServo System Timer offers sub-nanosecond resolution and sub-microsecond accuracy, tailored for FPGA applications that demand precise timing functions. Designed to support packet timestamping independent of line rates, this IP core can be utilized wherever high-resolution time bases are required.
A standout feature of TimeServo is its PI-DPLL that allows synchronization with an external 1 PPS signal, delivering excellent syntonicity. Without relying on host processors, the TimeServo system's simplicity and effective design are harnessed to provide clean, coherent timing outputs, essential for synchronization tasks within complex FPGA applications.
Additionally, when combined with a timestamp-capable MAC, the TimeServo can be expanded into the TimeServoPTP variant, enabling full IEEE-1588v2/PTP compliance. This versatility makes TimeServo a critical component for developers seeking integrated timing solutions across multiple clock domains within FPGA environments.
