  2. Radio clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_clock

    A radio clock or radio-controlled clock (RCC), and often colloquially (and incorrectly [1]) referred to as an " atomic clock ", is a type of quartz clock or watch that is automatically synchronized to a time code transmitted by a radio transmitter connected to a time standard such as an atomic clock. Such a clock may be synchronized to the time ...

  3. WWVB - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWVB

    WWVB is a time signal radio station near Fort Collins, Colorado and is operated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). [1] Most radio-controlled clocks in North America [2] use WWVB's transmissions to set the correct time. The normally 70 kW ERP signal transmitted from WWVB uses a 60 kHz carrier wave derived from a set of ...

  4. Quartz clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_clock

    Quartz clocks and quartz watches are timepieces that use an electronic oscillator regulated by a quartz crystal to keep time. This crystal oscillator creates a signal with very precise frequency, so that quartz clocks and watches are at least an order of magnitude more accurate than mechanical clocks. Generally, some form of digital logic ...

  5. Atomic clock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_clock

    A radio clock is a clock that automatically synchronizes itself by means of radio time signals received by a radio receiver. Some manufacturers may label radio clocks as atomic clocks, because the radio signals they receive originate from atomic clocks. Normal low-cost consumer-grade receivers that rely on the amplitude-modulated time signals ...

  6. Crystal oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_oscillator

    A crystal oscillator is an electronic oscillator circuit that uses a piezoelectric crystal as a frequency-selective element. [1] [2] [3] The oscillator frequency is often used to keep track of time, as in quartz wristwatches, to provide a stable clock signal for digital integrated circuits, and to stabilize frequencies for radio transmitters ...
