MAX24188
Low-Cost IEEE 1588 Clock
General Description
The MAX24188 is a flexible, low-cost IEEE 1588
clock designed to be the central 1588 time base in a
multiport system. In such systems (typically boundary
clocks or transparent clocks) timestampers at the
ports must all have a common time and frequency
reference. The MAX24188 serves as that common
reference. As the system exchanges 1588 packets
with an external 1588 master and calculates its time
offset vs. the master, the MAX24188 can be adjusted
by system software to zero out the time offset and
thereby achieve time and frequency synchronization
with the master. As the MAX24188 is adjusted, its
output frequency and time alignment signals are
correspondingly adjusted. All timestampers (and
other time-aware components) that receive those
signals then follow the adjustment to maintain
synchronization with the MAX24188. In this way all
1588 elements in the system maintain a common
sense of time and frequency.

function for 1588 systems. It can also be used in
conjunction
with
one
of
Maxim’s
clock
synchronization ICs in multimode systems designed
to be clocked by 1588, 1588 plus frequency (such as
synchronous Ethernet), or frequency only.
