To many engineers, clock selection involves nothing more than identifying a clock that will generate the necessary frequency or frequencies/output format, including it in the design, and moving on.

Harrison, born in 1693 in Lincolnshire, proposed a clock design that would solve the problem of determining longitude at sea. His proposal was vindicated last Thursday, 300 years after he first ...

A clock based on a design from 300 years ago has stunned experts by keeping accurate to a second for 100 days. The modern-day Martin Burgess Clock B is based on John Harrison's 18th century clock, ...

Multiple, independent clocks are ubiquitous in system-on-chip (SoC) design. Most SoC devices have multiple interfaces, some following standards that use very different clock frequencies. Many modern ...

If left to run for some 14 billion years — roughly the current age of the universe — a new type of atomic clock could keep accurate time to within a tenth of a second. The design by US experts makes ...

The Material Design team has an interesting blog post into what it calls the “24-hour Clock Design Challenge” that chronicles Google’s work creating a time picker for those that use a 24-hour format ...

Apple has officially reached a licensing agreement with Swiss Federal Railway (Schweizerische Bundesbahnen, or SBB) to continue to use the design of its iconic station clocks for the iPad’s Clock app.
