Interview With David Chandler, Senior Manager in Product Marketing of Atomic System Clocks at Microchip Technology Inc.
Achieving highly accurate precision timing is no easy feat from a technology perspective, yet it is fundamentally important in many applications. Getting this right can reduce design risk and speed up time to market.
In this podcast episode, we speak to David Chandler, senior manager in product marketing of atomic system clocks at Microchip, to learn more about atomic clocks, including the different types, how they work, use cases and how they fit with the wider Microchip portfolio.
Microchip provides a broad portfolio of laboratory-grade system atomic clocks and small PCB-mountable atomic oscillators, including the world’s lowest-power commercial atomic clock, for applications requiring the highest degree of free-running frequency and timing accuracy based on atomic resonance techniques.

Beyond the Microchip
So much of our daily lives are controlled or influenced by electronics. We rely on GPS to direct us, we hit "brew" on our coffee machines for our mornin' cup of Joe, we wave our hands over a sensor to get running water from a faucet, and press a button to open our garage doors.
But do we really know what's going on inside? Are we aware of the universe of technology and calculations going on right under our nose?
Beyond the Microchip takes you inside the world of Embedded Control technologies to understand how the chips and sensors we can't see impact our lives in dramatic ways. They remind us why we have and embrace technology, to enhance the human experience.
Join us each episode as we look at an aspect of our daily lives that shapes what it means to be human and how we can empower the innovation that enhances that experience through Microchip Technology. Subscribe to Beyond the Microchip wherever you get your podcasts.
