DART-MX8M Eth IEEE.1588

IEE1588 Hardware Timestamp

Overview of IEE1588 Hardware Timestamping

• Allows reference clock to be chosen independently of network speed.
• Software-programmable precise time-stamping of ingress and egress frames
• Timer monitoring capabilities for system calibration and timing accuracy management
• Precise time-stamping of external events with programmable interrupt generation
• Programmable event and interrupt generation for external system control
• Supports hardware- and software-controllable timer synchronization.
• Provides a 4-channel IEEE 1588 timer. Each channel supports input capture and output compare using the 1588 counter.
• Distribution of precise time information over the packetbased network
• Offers high accuracy (sub micro sec) over the network

Hardware Setup

• Connect Grand Master Clock Source (PC) to the same Ethernet to the target.
  
• Make sure there is communication between the PC and the target by checking the ping connectivity.
  

Software

On PC (Master) For Grand master clock can be Linux Build PC or other board For Ubuntu 16.04

$ sudo apt-get install linuxptp

Start the software base timestamping on PC or to become grandmaster clock source which you want to synchronize.

Make sure you have following device tree change present on your kernel.

- Here, in this case, the PC sends the timestamp using software timer, however, IEE1588 packets received on the target can synchronize the clock with 1uSec accuracy.

On device (Client)

Yocto build already contains the ptp4l required resoureces on the target.
