A Whole New Level of Clock Performance
Digital audio is all about timing. The further we press the limits of clock precision the better sonic results we experience. We delved into space age technologies and produced a clock of unprecedented accuracy and the sonic results are simply stunning.
It all starts with a crystalline material. Crystals were found to resonate at a precise frequency a hundred years ago. We have since pushed our understanding of crystal oscillation to an exact science. When the right crystalline material is cut exactly the right way, and allowed to resonate at the right temperature, a clock is created with unprecedented accuracy. (97 femtoseconds of jitter is less than a tenth of a picosecond - a new class of clock.)
The MSB Galaxy Clock has amazing noise performance with a guaranteed jitter measurement at the worse case of just 1 Hz away from the ideal clock frequency of less than 97 femtoseconds (0.097 picoseconds).
Here are the specifications:
Phase Noise at 1 Hz -85 db
Phase Noise at 10 Hz -110 db
Phase Noise at 1 kHz -120 db
Phase Noise at 10 kHz* -150 db
Guaranteed TIE (jitter down to 1 Hz) .097 psec.
* at CMOS output levels (For reference, at normal +13 dB levels the noise would be -170 dB).
