This application note describes the performance tests and
measurement results to verify the compliance of the TI network synchronizer devices
(
LMK5CXXXXXA,
LMK5BXXXXX,
and
LMK5XXXXXXS1) in combination with the Oregano Systems
syn1588® technology Precision Time Protocol (PTP)
telecommunication profiles
G.8275.1 and
G.8275.2, respectively. The G.8275.1 profile covers networks with full
timing support, in which all network devices provide either the PTP Boundary Clock
or PTP Transparent Clock support with sufficient accuracy. Meanwhile, the G.8275.2
profile defines the PTP for networks with partial timing support, in which only some
of the network devices require the PTP support. The LMK5xxxxxS1 is used for
adjusting the frequency of the PTP hardware Time-of-Day (ToD) clock and is in
compliance with the telecommunication accuracies of Class A (100ns), Class B (70ns),
Class C (30ns), and even Class D.
