This work describes a new methodology for the purpose of remote testing, debugging and maintenance of networked electronic and mechatronic systems which makes use of the IEEE 1588 high-precision clock synchronization protocol. After the underlying concepts of IEEE 1588 are briefly sketched, the paper describes how functionalities like testing, debugging and maintenance can benefit from a network-wide notion of time as provided by the IEEE 1588 standard. An implementation of the IEEE 1588 protocol with support for test, debug and maintenance as well as links to the integration of the proposed concept into existing tools are presented. Further, the proposed approach is discussed under consideration of recent standardization efforts. Finally, a case study from the area of automotive electronics is described.

This paper provides a runtime stability analysis of the Daisy-Chain clock synchronization algorithm running over CASCA - a time-triggered extension of CAN bus. The main objective is to show with practical results how to achieve global time base of high precision and how this precision is affected by the modification of the TDMA transmission schedule. That contributes by providing some basic guidelines for the task of designing time-triggered, TDMA-based distributed systems for embedded control applications.

Development of intelligent grid have increasing demands for time synchronization, high precision, large scale, high performance time synchronization system has become necessary guarantee for the normal operation of the power grid. This article introduced the composition of the time synchronization system, discusses the IEEE1588 implementation of high precision clock synchronization principle and SDH data transmission principle, analysis of the PTP protocol for transmission through the principle of the SDH E1 line, gives the networking scheme of PTP over the E1 way, which meet the precision requirement of 1 us.

In view of PTP high precise timing requirement for many application fields, GPS time service is provided with the advantages of high precision and high stabilization. The principle and timescale of PTP based on GPS are analyzed and discussed. And then a PTP time synchronization platform with GPS-based UTC time is designed and implemented, the correlative key design flowchart is described as well. Finally, the paper gives the experiment results, which show the time synchronization accuracies can reach nanosecond range.

High precision clock synchronization is the basis for all applications in network-based distributed motion control system. To solve this problem, the clock synchronization principle is analysed; the initialization process of STM32F107VC PTP(Precision Time Protocol) hardware unit is introduced, and the process of capturing time stamp by PTP hardware unit, as well as clock adjustment mechanism, is in-depth dissected. PTPd v2 clock synchronization is realized in STM32F107VC platform supported by LwIP protocol stack. The results indicate that it is able to achieve an accuracy of less than 260ns clock synchronization based on STM32F107VC PTP hardware unit.
