4.10.3 IRIG-B Outputs
The PTP Card supports both IRIG-B outputs in both Amplitude Modulated (AM) and
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) formats. Specifically, for the AM output IRIG-B122 &
IRIG-B123 are supported and for the PWM IRIG-B002 & IRIG-B003 are supported.
Enabling of the AM and PWM outputs is done through software.
The number of IRIG-B devices that can be connected to the AM or PWM source is
dependent on the cabling type and length as well as the input impedances of the
devices. Figure 34 shows a simplified circuit diagram of the interface between the
IRIG-B source and connected devices.

The maximum number of devices (N) that can be connected to the source is
determined by checking if the source current (I
devices is less than the maximum drive current the source can provide, and verifying
that the load voltage (V

4.10.4 Pulse per Second Output (PPS)
The PTP Card supports one Pulse-Per-Second output. When enabled through
software, it outputs a 5V pulse every second.
