You can assume they mean a computer's crystal oscillator when talking about a VCO. However, the cheap crystal oscillator in a computer has no hardware adjustment, the offset is calculated & controlled in software, so it's kind of like a "virtual VCO". > And for Fig.6: > - Are all parts in the figure software components except VCO? In this instance for NTP, yes.... _______________________________________________ questions mailing list questions@lists.ntp.org http://lists.ntp.org/listinfo/questions
