MMC
Modular Timing System

Brandywine’s Modular Master Clock System offers precise, redundant timing for defense and aerospace with GPS integrity checking, hot-swappable modules, and flexible configurations.

The Brandywine Modular Master Clock System (MMC) is an advanced, high-precision timing solution designed for mission-critical applications. Featuring dual-redundant Master Clock Modules (MCM), it ensures reliable time and frequency synchronization using GPS, IRIG-B, Have Quick/1PPS, or external 10 MHz references. With industry-first GPS integrity checking and a unique optical crosslink for Master-Slave or Master-Master configurations, the MMC delivers unmatched resilience against GPS spoofing. Available in 1U (5 slots) and 2U (12 slots) variants, it supports hot-swappable modules, multiple oscillator options (Rubidium, CSAC, OCXO), and customizable outputs, making it ideal for defense, aerospace, and high-reliability industries.
