Project Team

- Lead: Anand Ram (Calnex)

- Lead: Julian St James (Meta)

Roadmap Planning

Initial Proof of Concept based on Time Card for PPS measurement

Software

Potential Future Solutions

1. TDC based design, targeting small and cheap use-case. 2. PTM based design, to synchronize multiple measurement daughter cards with a high stability source over PCIe 3. UWB based design, targeting locations where GPS is not available at point of measurement 4. DPLL based design, targeting non-FPGA use case
