Specifying Holdover Performance
• What happens when GNSS clocks lose lock?
• What does holdover mean?
• Why is it difficult to compare holdover claims between manufacturers?
• Why do we specify holdover over a complete range of environmental parameters?
• What makes us confident in our claims? We hold two patents
(US 9 362 926 and US 9 979 406) for ‘High-Reliability Holdover Method and Topologies’ which offer several improvements to previous state of the art.
