Open Timecard Mini 3.0

The Open Timecard Mini 3.0 is a compact, GNSS-disciplined PTP and NTP grandmaster clock on a PCIe card. It serves NTP, IEEE 1588 PTP, PPS and frequency outputs directly from the card, with an integrated OCXO and a multi-band u-blox GNSS receiver — an all-in-one time sync solution for servers, edge systems and labs.

Key features

  • Full-height and half-height PCIe slot profiles
  • NTP, PTP, PPS & frequency distribution direct from the card
  • 1 GbE built-in network port
  • Integrated OCXO with aging compensation
  • Multi-band GPS/GNSS receiver (u-blox LEA-F9T)
  • Full PTP profile support

Specifications

Time pulse accuracy up to 2.5 ns
Time pulse jitter ±4 ns
Oscillator stability ±5 ppb
Typical OCXO holdover 1.5 µs / 8 hours
GNSS timing accuracy 5 ns absolute (LEA-F9T, 1-sigma)
Build Resistant to shock and vibration

PTP profile support

  • Default & Enterprise profiles (E2E and P2P)
  • IEC 61850-9-3 Utility profile
  • IEEE C37.238-2017 (and 2011) Power profile
  • ITU-T G.8265.1(/2) & G.8275.1(/2) Telecom profiles
  • SMPTE 2059-2 & AES67/RAVENNA broadcast profiles

Applications

Deployed in finance (in-server time sync for trading systems and MiFID II style compliance), broadcast (studio and live event genlock), telecom/5G (space-efficient PRTC at the edge) and defence (robust timing in vehicle and mobile units).
