IRIG J-1 timecode consists of 15 characters (150 bit times), sent once per second at a baud rate of 300 or greater: <SOH>DDD:HH:MM:SS<CR><LF>. SOH is the ASCII "start of header" code, with binary value 0x01. DDD is the ordinal date (day of year), from 1 to 366. HH, MM and SS are the time of the start bit.
The ISO C standard states that time_t must be an arithmetic type, but does not mandate any specific type or encoding for it. POSIX requires time_t to be an integer type, but does not mandate that it be signed or unsigned. Unix has no tradition of directly representing non-integer Unix time numbers as binary fractions.
Binary-coded decimal(BCD) is a binary encoded representation of integer values that uses a 4-bit nibbleto encode decimal digits. Four binary bits can encode up to 16 distinct values; but, in BCD-encoded numbers, only ten values in each nibble are legal, and encode the decimal digits zero, through nine.
The military time zones are a standardized, uniform set of time zones for expressing time across different regions of the world, named after the NATO phonetic alphabet. The Zulu time zone (Z) is equivalent to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and is often referred to as the military time zone. The military time zone system ensures clear ...
Offset binary, [1] also referred to as excess-K, [1] excess-N, excess-e, [2] [3] excess code or biased representation, is a method for signed number representation where a signed number n is represented by the bit pattern corresponding to the unsigned number n + K, K being the biasing value or offset. There is no standard for offset binary, but ...
Fixed-point arithmetic. In computing, fixed-point is a method of representing fractional (non-integer) numbers by storing a fixed number of digits of their fractional part. Dollar amounts, for example, are often stored with exactly two fractional digits, representing the cents (1/100 of dollar). More generally, the term may refer to ...
Here's a geeky watch that won't destroy your budget. Cadence teamed up with designer John Flear to produce the 4-BIt watch. The geek angle? All of the time indications are shown in 4-bit binary ...
The core of the traditional radio frequency atomic clock is a tunable microwave cavity containing a gas. In a hydrogen maser clock the gas emits microwaves (the gas mases) on a hyperfine transition, the field in the cavity oscillates, and the cavity is tuned for maximum microwave amplitude.
