In accordance with some embodiments of the present invention, a method of minimizing timing error in a precise timing protocol system includes receiving an input 1PPS signal and a clock signal; outputting an output 1PPS signal a number of clock edges after receipt of the input 1PPS signal; adjusting the clock signal until the output 1PPS signal as jumped a clock cycle; and adjusting an offset to bring the output 1PPS signal to within a half clock period. In some embodiments, further adjustments can be made to the timestamp.
