  2. Maximum time interval error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_time_interval_error

    This distance varies as the window moves, being maximal for some window position. This maximal distance is known as MTIE for the given observation interval. Plotting MTIE vs. different observation interval duration gives a chart useful for characterizing the stability of the clock.

  3. Clock synchronization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_synchronization

    Clock synchronization is a topic in computer science and engineering that aims to coordinate otherwise independent clocks. Even when initially set accurately, real clocks will differ after some amount of time due to clock drift, caused by clocks counting time at slightly different rates. There are several problems that occur as a result of ...

    5.307 × 10 −10 – 8.349 × 10 −11 = 4.472 × 10 −10. This fraction is subtracted from 1 and multiplied by the pre-adjusted clock frequency of 10.23 MHz: (1 – 4.472 × 10 −10) × 10.23 = 10.22999999543. That is we need to slow the clocks down from 10.23 MHz to 10.22999999543 MHz in order to negate both time dilation effects.

    The first version of Microsoft Schedule+ as bundled with version 3.0 of the Microsoft Mail email client will refuse to work [needs update] with years greater than 2020 or beyond, due to the fact that the program was designed to operate within a 100-year time window ranging from 1920 to 2019. As a result, the date can only be set as high as 31 ...

  6. Real-time clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_clock

    A real-time clock (RTC) is an electronic device (most often in the form of an integrated circuit) that measures the passage of time. Although the term often refers to the devices in personal computers , servers and embedded systems , RTCs are present in almost any electronic device which needs to keep accurate time of day .

  7. Clock drift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_drift

    Clock drift refers to several related phenomena where a clock does not run at exactly the same rate as a reference clock. That is, after some time the clock "drifts apart" or gradually desynchronizes from the other clock. All clocks are subject to drift, causing eventual divergence unless resynchronized.

  8. Category:Computer real-time clocks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Computer_real...

    Real-time clocks are electronic devices designed to provide system time, and thereby wall-clock time, to a computer system. (Contrast this with clock signals, designed to provide timing for electronics themselves.)

  9. Clock skew - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_skew

    If the clock arrival times at individual registers are viewed as variables to be adjusted in order to minimize the clock period while satisfying the setup and hold inequalities for all of the paths through the circuit, then the result is a Linear Programming problem. [3] In this linear program, zero clock skew is merely a feasible point - the ...
