Brandywine Communications Introduces the VPX Timing Card

Brandywine Communications, in partnership with Reach Technologies, are proud to introduce the VPX Timing Card, a ruggedized conduction cooled timing unit that provides versatile multifunction clock references for any environment.

This fully-defined, backplane-centric VPX module optionally supports either commercial GNSS receivers, or secure SAASM M-Code GPS receiver data along with external 1PPS UTC rollover references, reference clocks of up to 100MHz, as well as Amplitude Modulated (AM) or DC Level Shifted AM (DCLS) IRIG inputs as means of synchronization via the VITA 67.3C backplane RF connector.
