As USB is a two wire interface, there is no such thing as PPS over USB. You of course can get the ASCII data over USB, but to get a PPS signal you in general have to hack a USB GPS and add a signal wire for PPS then hack some interface on the computer to accept PPS. If all you need is accuracy in the 2 millisecond range, most recent USB GNSS dongles will achieve that without PPS. -- This is questions@lists.ntp.org Subscribe: questions+subscr...@lists.ntp.org Unsubscribe: questions+unsubscr...@lists.ntp.org
