An advanced derivative of the TimeServo System Timer, TimeServoPTP combines precise timing capabilities with full compliance to IEEE-1588v2/PTP standards. This IP core effectively manages synchronization, enabling both 1-step and 2-step processes in alignment with external network time grandmasters.
TimeServoPTP enhances FPGA application performance by providing accurate, coherent timing necessary for time-sensitive data synchronization. It integrates a Gardner Type-2 DPLL and supports a wide range of operations without needing host intervention post-initialization.
Its efficient design enhances interaction between FPGA and networked systems through the seamless management of PTP communication, utilizing both Ethernet L2 PTP/1588 EtherType frames. This functionality enables optimized power and latency performance, critical in time-sensitive FPGA applications across industries.
