Symmetricom®, Inc. (NASDAQ: SYMM), a worldwide leader in precise time and frequency technologies that accelerate the deployment and enable the management of next generation networks, today announced two PCI Express (PCIe) time and frequency computer plug-in cards. The bc635PCIe and the GPS synchronized bc637PCIe bring unparalleled precise time and frequency functions to the latest computers and servers equipped with PCIe bus technology. These PCIe timing cards provide an optimum solution for customers with time sensitive applications in the aerospace, defense, power utility and financial industries for combining precise timing with their application specific systems. Microsecond accurate timing synchronized across multiple computers enhances measurement capabilities and enables distributed applications to work in concert and in real time as well as improve the post-processing correlation of collected data.

These low profile PCIe timing cards include industry leading software development kits (SDKs) and drivers for Windows, Linux and Solaris that enable quick and easy integration into custom systems. Never before has such broad software support been bundled with the wide range of timing features found in the bc635PCIe and bc637PCIe cards. The result is a comprehensive bus level timing solution enabling customers to efficiently integrate timing technology into their systems with a minimum investment of effort.

“These latest time and frequency processor cards are keeping pace with the computer and server industry by providing PCI Express interface support, and they excel at saving our customers time and money when adding timing technology to their systems, ” commented Paul Skoog, product marketing manager for Symmetricom. “Our full-featured, easy-to-use software development kits included with the cards enable programmers to integrate timing technology into their systems efficiently while leveraging Symmetricom’s extensive timing expertise.”

New capabilities of the PCI Express time and frequency processor cards include:

  • Precision Time Stamps – provided on demand at extremely fast rates with low latency
  • Easy PCIe Card Integration – the comprehensive software development kits, included standard with the product, make it extremely easy to integrate the bus cards into custom applications with 32/64-bit Windows and Linux and 64-bit Solaris
  • PCI Express Support – provides support for the low profile PCIe bus interface, the computer expansion card standard replacing older PCI and PCI-X standards
  • Extensive Time Code Generation and Translation – IRIG A, B, G, E, IEEE 1344, NASA 36, XR3 or 2137 formats supported to address a variety of timing requirements common to aerospace, defense and power utility applications
  • Industry Leading User Interface and Documentation – extremely easy to use software interface and easy to follow documentation speed integration
  • Easy Predecessor Migration – customer applications written around earlier bc635/637PCI cards can quickly and easily migrate to the new bc635/637PCIe cards; in most cases, as easy as plug-and-play compatibility

Versatile and highly reliable, Symmetricom’s bus level timing cards deliver extremely precise and accurate time for government, aerospace and financial applications that require tight integration between precise time and frequency functions and the application software on the host computer.

Availability

The PCI Express time and frequency processor cards will be available December 1, 2009.
