Exciting News… IQD Have Open Sourced the WR Switch v4 Expansion Board on GitLab!
We're thrilled to share this major milestone in our ongoing commitment to the open source White Rabbit ecosystem, with IQD now having a dedicated GitLab repository where Developers, Researchers and Collaborators can access the open source design files for an Expansion Board that brings holdover capabilities to the White Rabbit Switch v4.
The IQD x GitLab repository includes resources related to the expansion board - an important step forward in enhancing timing resilience and maintaining precision, even during reference signal interruptions.
Why This Matters…
The WRC exists to bring stakeholders of the technology together, identify common interests and development needs, and define together the future of WR. Opening this repository is another demonstration of IQD's commitment to transparency, innovation, and shared progress.
White Rabbit PTS
This PTS board consists of the Production Test System designed to connect the Holdover Expansion board to measurement equipment and enables the confirmation of the function of the Holdover Expansion board. For more information, click here: White Rabbit PTS
White Rabbit Expansion Board
The card interfaces with the switch via the expansion slot located on the rear of the WR Network switch v4. Power is taken from the switch, and no external interfaces are needed to run the card. For more information, click here: White Rabbit Expansion Board
Generic Expansion Board
This project gives the basic requirements of an expansion card needed to fit the WR Network Switch v4. The details are given to assist a new project which would like to interface to the WR Network Switch v4. For more information, click here: Generic Expansion Board
