Abstract
A method and system for synchronizing clocks in a packet network that includes a master node and at least one slave node that communicate with one another is disclosed. A timer value from a master clock is retrieved upon transmission of a first packet to the slave node. The timer value and an associated code are subsequently sent to the slave node in a subsequent packet. After receiving the first packet, the slave node, retrieves a timer value from a slave clock and associates it with an identifying code of the first packet. After receiving the subsequent packet, the slave node relates the timer values and adjusts a clock value of the slave clock accordingly. An interrupt scheme may be used to implement the retrieval of the timer values.
