SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 26, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrated
Device Technology, Inc.® (IDT®) (NASDAQ: IDTI) today introduced a
new hardware and software solution that simplifies IEEE 1588
synchronization of network communications equipment. The 82P339xx-1
products are composed of IEEE 1588-compliant software and IDT
Synchronization Management Unit (SMU)
chips that deliver a complete telecom network synchronization
solution for IEEE 1588 and synchronous Ethernet.
Network synchronization based on IEEE 1588 Telecom Boundary
Clocks (T-BC) is a practical and cost-effective alternative to
deploying Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) antennas at
every node in the network. IEEE 1588 Telecom Boundary Clocks
compliant with ITU-T G.8273.2 enable the recovery of accurate
frequency and phase/time information over a packet-based
network.
The IDT T-BC hardware is deterministic, simpler and more
automated than alternative silicon solutions as it requires less
external processor intervention. The hardware/software solution
includes an IEEE 1588 protocol stack, clock recovery servos for
frequency and phase/time, and clock synthesis hardware with
physical layer frequency support.
"Packet-based synchronization has historically been challenging
for system designers to implement because it requires a broad range
of specialized technology and needs to meet stringent network
standards," said Louise Gaulin, vice
president and general manager of IDT's Network Communications
Division. "The 82P339xx-1 products were specifically engineered to
be easy to use, flexible and to comply with the latest generation
of packet-based synchronization standards."
The 82P339xx-1 SMUs automatically filter IEEE 1588 phase/time
information and combine it with physical layer frequency
information in accordance with ITU-T G.8273.2 to generate accurate,
stable and low-jitter clocks. The phase/time and frequency filters
are implemented in hardware to ensure deterministic filter
bandwidths, eliminating the need for additional software
processing.
The 82P339xx-1 product family is designed for a wide range of
applications including base stations, access equipment, routers,
switches, optical equipment and servers. Standards compliance has
been validated and test reports are available with the results.
