GNSS Receivers

GPS receivers are essential for military navigation, and accurate timing is essential to the GPS system. Precision timing components must provide the highest stability in the most dynamic conditions. If timing fails, receivers lose lock to satellites and navigation systems won’t receive critical data.

SiTime ruggedized Endura™ timing solutions are built to reliability operate in harsh environments, overcoming the inherent weaknesses of quartz and delivering robust performance—even under high levels of mechanical shock and vibration or extreme and rapidly changing temperatures.

Precision Timing in GNSS Receivers

For more the 250 years, accurate time keeping has been essential in determining an observer's exact position, the key element of navigation. With today’s global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), the need for precise timekeeping remains.

A GNSS receiver needs exact timekeeping to fast lock to satellite signal and local oscillator stability for accurate positioning and time synchronization, even during weak satellite signal acquisition and under dynamic operating environments.
