  2. Clock drift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_drift

    Even the Earth's rotation rate has more drift and variation in drift than an atomic clock due to tidal acceleration and other effects. The principle behind the atomic clock has enabled scientists to re-define the SI unit second in terms of exactly 9 192 631 770 oscillations of the caesium-133 atom. The precision of these oscillations allows ...

  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.

  4. Talk:Clock drift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Clock_drift

    If we make a new article from that material, what should we call it? "clock drift random number generator" ? "oscillator driven random number generator" ? --68.0.124.33 20:23, 5 April 2008 (UTC) It belongs in the other article. Someone reading about clock drift does not want to read a few paragraphs about RNG techniques.

  5. Bit slip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_slip

    In digital transmission, bit slip is the loss or gain of a bit or bits, caused by clock drift – variations in the respective clock rates of the transmitting and receiving devices. One cause of bit slip is overflow of a receive buffer that occurs when the transmitter's clock rate exceeds that of the receiver.

  6. Self-clocking signal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-clocking_signal

    If the embedded clock signal is isochronous, it gets sent simultaneously with the data. Below is an example signal, in this case using the Manchester code self-clocking signal. The data and clock cycles can be thought of as "adding up" to a combination, where both the clock cycle and the data can be retrieved from the transmitted signal.

  7. Berkeley algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berkeley_algorithm

    With this method the average cancels out individual clock's tendencies to drift. Gusella and Zatti released results involving 15 computers whose clocks were synchronised to within about 20-25 milliseconds using their protocol. Computer systems normally avoid rewinding their clock when they receive a negative clock alteration from the leader.

  9. Clock skew - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clock_skew

    There are two types of violation that can be caused by clock skew. One problem is caused when the clock reaches the first register and the clock signal towards the second register travels slower than output of the first register into the second register - the output of the first register reaches the second register input faster and therefore is clocked replacing the initial data on the second ...
