Perhaps I am looking for unattainable.. but I have HP/Agilent 58534A (a.k.a Symmetricom 58534A) "GPS Timing Antenna", which specifications are telling that it should attain 1PPS timing jitter of less than 40 ns in proper stabilized position hold mode. Can that level be handled with standard PC hardware, or should the time keeping and core parts of NTP be delegated into FPGA entirely ? Stratum-1 is rather demanding, after all... > However, if you prefere that I add the if clause, I'll do it. > Thanks, > Rodolfo Thanks, Matti -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
