The referenced article indicates that they apply the smear to their NTP servers and allow the clients to track the servers. This approach would place some limits on the minimum lead time you would need to implement the smear. 1) you would have to start early enough for the servers to detect

I replaced one last year. I used a Delta EFB4012HD from Digi-Key but it isn't in stock currently. I just looked up the specs on the fan I removed and matched it to the fans available. There were multiple suitable substitutes. On 1/11/2015 00:59, Loïc Moreau wrote: Hi, My 53132A cooling fan

The PRU on the BeagleBone each include an enhanced capture module that can be used as you describe. It has a 32 bit timer that is latched into one of the capture registers. The timers are independent of the timer used by the Linux system so I'm not sure how you would tie them into use with

PRU appears to be unique to TI. I have only used Raspberry Pi, Beaglebone, and Cubieboard. The Cubieboard (Allwinner CPU) has a lot of IO pins like the Beaglebone but nothing like a PRU. Mike George On 3/22/2014 16:53, Chris Albertson wrote: Thanks, Yes of course ARM refers only to ARM
