5G technology requires time sources to be synchronized throughout a packet-switched network ten times more accurately than 4G requirements.

"Our newest ZL3073x/63x/64x network synchronization platform implements sophisticated measure, calibrate and tune capabilities, thereby significantly reducing network equipment time error to meet the most stringent 5G requirements," said Rami Kanama, vice president of Microchip's timing and communications business unit.

"A uniquely flexible architecture for implementing the necessary channel density as well as high-performance, low-jitter synthesizers help simplify the design of timing cards, line cards, Radio Units, Centralized Units and Distributed Units for 5G Radio Access Networks."

Microchip's network synchronization platform software includes its ZLS30730 high-performance algorithm coupled with its ZLS30390 IEEE 1588-2008 protocol engine.

Microchip's ZL3073x/63x/64x network synchronization platform combines seamlessly with the company's family of precision 5G oscillators - for example, the OX-601 Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator - to offer 5G network operators a total system solution.

Microchip's ZL3073x/63x/64x network synchronization platform is available in production quantities and offered with IEEE 1588 PTP and algorithm software modules, which are provided through license terms for download.
