At this point, atomic clocks are old news. They’ve been quietly keeping our world on schedule for decades now, and have been through several iterations with each generation gaining more accuracy. They ...

Many microcontrollers include timer circuits, but only a few include a battery-backed real-time clock (RTC). Yet many applications require an RTC, which you can easily add by using a 1-Wire network.

With the introduction of the DS3231 extremely accurate, I²C-compatible, integrated RTC/TCXO/crystal, Dallas Semiconductor has redefined the accuracy expectations of a stand-alone, real-time clock. The ...

(Bloomberg) — If time is money, precision in nanoseconds can be measured in millions of dollars. Shimadzu Corp, a Kyoto, Japan-based precision equipment maker, has started selling a clock which is ...
