SAN JOSE, Calif., March 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrated
Device Technology, Inc. (IDT) (NASDAQ: IDTI), is helping
wireless carriers migrate to 5G networks with today's launch of its
new IDT® ClockMatrix™ family of multi-channel clocking devices. The
family delivers best-in-class timing performance that exceeds the
unprecedented 5G requirements for time precision while only
requiring minimal changes to existing equipment designs. These
devices are already used in 5G base stations, routers, switches and
other networking equipment. The superior performance of ClockMatrix
devices makes them ideal for a broad range of networking, broadcast
video, optical transport network (OTN) and industrial automation
systems that require critical timing performance for clock
generation, frequency translation, jitter attenuation and phase
alignment.
The ClockMatrix family is comprised of three lines of
devices:
- System Synchronizers, which generate telecom-compliant clocks
for network equipment
- Port Synchronizers, for extending telecom-compliant clocks to
the many ports in network equipment
- Universal Frequency Translators (UFT), which perform jitter
attenuation, clock generation and frequency translation functions
for general purpose applications.
"We recognized several years ago that the wireless carriers'
impending migration to 5G networks would require more precise time
synchronization, and so we designed our ClockMatrix family to both
upgrade the time precision of existing network equipment as well as
support new equipment designs to enable a smooth migration," said
Kris Rausch, vice president and
general manager of IDT's Timing Products Division. "ClockMatrix
devices are the only timing solutions on the market to combine such
performance and features with exceptional flexibility, which not
only makes them excellent for 5G networking equipment, but a
variety of other applications."
The ClockMatrix devices' combination of features and performance
make them ideal for a variety of network devices used in both
backhaul and fronthaul 5G applications. For example, they can make
extremely accurate phase measurements on timing signals using their
multiple inputs and precision time-to-digital converters (TDC),
with some family members capable of measuring to less than 1 ps.
Additionally, they offer precise control of input-to-output phase
(as low as 1ps steps) along with excellent close-in phase noise
performance.
The pulse width modulation (PWM) capability of the devices
eliminates the need for customers to redesign existing backplanes.
This allows manufacturers to get new line cards to market quickly
and to target an existing installed base with a simple migration
path. PWM can transmit and receive clocks, frames pulses and
time-of-day (TOD) data in one signal.
The ClockMatrix family of synchronizers meet carriers' constant
time error (cTE) and G.8273.2 telecom boundary clock (T-BC)
requirements. Their exceptional phase alignment performance makes
the devices ideal for T-BC classes C and D, with demonstrated cTE
performance better than 5 nanoseconds in customer systems.

documentation, samples and evaluation kits, is available at
