So just some comments based on personal experience with the raspi. Your experience may vary.
I think it depends if they are phase aligned or offset. If the interrupts are occurring at the same time, I would anticipate increased jitter. If they are offset I would not expect any negative impact. A simple way to demonstrate the effect would be to feed the same pulse to two different PPS pins. The ISRs will compete when both interrupts fire. It's trivial to add more PPS inputs to the raspi. I'd be curious if anybody has experience to share with multicore setups with interrupts pinned to different cores. - Brian > On Dec 10, 2014, at 10:55 AM, Laszlo Hanyecz <[email protected]> wrote: > > Time-nuts, > > Is it a bad idea to have more than one PPS source on a single machine?
