Description
IRIG Time Code Receiver


The board TCR509 has been designed for the reception of the IRIG code formats A133 and B123, as well as the translation of these received IRIG codes into a serial telegram and a pulse telegram as broadcasted by the German time code transmitter DCF77. TCR509 can perform a re-calculation of UTC from IRIG time. A buffered real time clock keeps time and date after power down. The receiver's automatic gain control (AGC) allows the reception of IRIG signals within an amplitude range from 600mV to 8V (peak to peak). The board is equipped with a flash memory and a bootstrap loader which allows to update the systems firmware via serial port. A LED display which shows time and date is available on request.
