| | The Virtual Primary Reference Time Clock A Next-Generation Timing Architecture for Critical Infrastructure Date: August 27 Sponsored Content by: Microchip Summary: Accuracy, precision and stability have traditionally been used to describe the requirements for timing and synchronization. Although these timing metrics remain vital, a new set of requirements have become equally important with the goal of delivering better resiliency in critical infrastructure: prevention, restoration and recovery. A variety of technologies are being discussed to create a back-up to GNSS. The answer to greater resiliency does not lie in the number of timing sources, but rather in a timing architecture that incorporates these technologies. This presentation will discuss how a Virtual Primary Reference Timing Clock (vPRTC) architecture is optimized for resilient timing. Speakers: Tony Flavin, Manager, Strategic Research, Chronos Technology Ltd Lee Cosart, Chair or ATIS SYNC Committee, Microchip Jim Olsen, Senior Solution Architect, Microchip
