RPI does allow GPIO PPS input Also the RPI4 does PTP. On Tue, Nov 23, 2021 at 12:53:02PM +0200, Avamander wrote: > Speaking of Raspberry Pi's as time servers, does anyone here know of a nice > single board computer that supports both Ethernet hardware timestamping and > GPIO PPS input? > > On

> If you have a good local NTP setup, you can measure how good other servers are, or more likely how good the network connection is. NTP assumes the network delays are symmetric. Often, that's not true. So "how good" turns into measuring network (a)symmetries. Yes this is what I'd like to do

Thanks! The TimeHat looks like a good option considering the price. I am trying to do a Raspberry pi + gps project myself, but will possibly end up getting one of those in the future. On Sun, Nov 21, 2021 at 9:52 PM W7SLS wrote: > Welcome, and here are a few thoughts: > > One of the members

Strange. I have three of these that I have tracked pretty closely for several years. To my knowledge, I’ve never experienced any circumstance in which they were off by one or more seconds. Regarding the holdover behavior, I have not tested that. But if you believe that the current behavior

A couple of years ago, I acquired a related “time-nuts” NTP appliance. As usual, it was not working properly and waited for service time on my electronics workbench. The ESE ES-188 is an NTP referenced Master Clock and Time Code Generator (circa 2007). It displays nine digits (Day of Year,

GPS with any serial port can be used (along with PPS) for accurate time. You write a routine for a microcontroller that maintains time keeping and clock it from the 1 PPS signal. That gives you correct display of accurate time. You read the NMEA from the GPS and use it to set your registers on
