 Special Focus: Understanding the IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol
Measurement and automation applications often must precisely synchronize events over a widely distributed system.
For example, an industrial automation system may need to synchronize distributed motion controllers, or a test and measurement system may need to measure strain gages distributed over the wing span of an airplane.
The IEEE 1588 precision time protocol (PTP) provides a standard method to synchronize devices on a network with...
