Huh? Dividing 10,000,000 by 4 (to match the PI
Thanks for the info, Clint.
Seems like the only way to get my four Panasonic DVRs to synchronize
time is to analyze the I/O of the micro in the DVR, write interface
and HMI specs, and replace the micro with one that can talk to my
SNTP server. (Added two DVRs back when NASA was launching shuttles.
Yes, DLL not DDL I made a mistake. Actually it is not in my schedule to
make such a divisor, just for speculation. The main thought here is that,
as you pointed out, it can be done avoiding PLL and DLL.

The original context was keeping wall clock time.

Are you near any Class-A or low-power stations? Those are still permitted to
broadcast NTSC signals. What's in their vertical interval would be a separate
question, though.

No doubt, the correct way to generate accurate clocks from an accurate
10MHz is by PLLs. There are DDS too, then there is a strange method that
uses a sort of dual (triple? Quadruple? ...) modulus. The advantage is that
you don't need another oscillator (the PLL needs a VCO) or the (co)sine
lookup
Years ago (in the 80's) I needed to lock a homebrew DDS to an accurate,
stable 10 MHz reference (a good TCXO in this case) that was set to
WWV/H. Considering that the DDS was clocked at 2^24 Hz (16.777216 MHz)
this was slightly awkward, but I did it using standard HC and 4000 logic.
The convo
OK for the PSOC example. At the moment I can try on a Spartan3 because I
already have a board with the OCXO. The Spartan3 has the so called DCM, a
digital clock generator that can multiply an input clock using its DDL
digital delay line.

It's the same math as a DDS.
If Breseham would land exactly on a grid point after N steps, a DDS wi
esult is spot on, at least to the limits of my calculation tools.

I think I've seen comments about
I think I've seen comments about making 32 KHz from 10 MHz in a PIC or AVR.
tvb has this web page, but I don't see a 32 KHz option:

Hal,
Yes, I have a PIC divider that takes 5 or 10 MHz input and
outputs a 32.768 kHz square wave with minimal jitter and

What sort of crystals do you find inside? My guess is there are two of them,
one at 32KHz used for timekeeping, and one at ?? MHz for the CPU.
I think I've seen comments about making 32 KHz from 10 MHz in a PIC or A
And now for something completely different:
Here I am with all of this precision time equipment, and I still
have to manually set time on the Digital Video Recorders (DVR)
because the TV channels that used to send a time code that the
DVR understood no longer do so. Seems like it died when digital
