The clock synchronization is the key technology in distributed control system. This paper investigates the method to adjust computer clock frequency and time in embedded control system based on Ethernet. This paper also analyses the basic working principle of the IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol. In particular, it outlines the working principle of the free PTPd that is the software only implementations of the IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol. In the ARM-Linux environment, it presents a clock synchronization method to achieve high precise clock synchronization in distributed control system using PTPd. The results indicate that it is able to synchronize distributed clocks with the accuracy less than 500 microseconds using PTPd without the support of specialized hardware.

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.
