GPS500 Time Code Generator

Time Reference

• Accuracy: SMPTE output accuracy of ± 20 microseconds, when synchronized
• Accuracy: IRIG-B0 (DCLS/PWM) output accuracy of ± 90 microseconds, when synchronized
• Accuracy: IRIG-B1 (AM) output accuracy of ± 1.4 milliseconds, when synchronized
• Accuracy: PPS output accuracy of ± 60 nanoseconds, when synchronized
• Should the GPS500 lose GPS signal it will revert to an internal TCXO oscillator and maintain an accuracy of ± 1 minute per year. The PPS output is synchronized to the internal TCXO oscillator.

Outputs

• SMPTE, EBU:30, 25 or 24fps
• IRIG-B: 1 kHz modulated, level - 5 Vpp
• IRIG-B: unmodulated, single ended 5 V
• PPS: 5 V-TTL, accuracy ± 60 nanoseconds (when synchronized to GPS)
• PPS: Pulse width configurable via switch from ~200 ms to ~1 ms
• Serial output via RS-232/RS-485 NMEA Kinemetrics/Truetime protocol
• Date encoded references (IRIG 1344 and SMPTE Leitch date format or 309M)
