SW
: Word Clock Monitoring and Changeover Unit
This module can supervise and analyse incoming Word Clock signals of two sources. Each
source can deliver up to four different Word Clock signals. In the event of a failure of one
source, “SW” automatically switches to the other faultless source. The “SW” module is a must
for all Word Clock systems set-ups where a failure proof and redundant Word Clock is a
requirement. Additionally it offers a status monitor indicating errors, failures, and status of all
incoming signals.
