en.Wedoany.com Reported - Microchip Technology has released the new TimePictra® 12 platform, a major software upgrade to its synchronization management software. Designed to help critical infrastructure operators manage advanced timing architectures with greater visibility, automation, and control, the new version offers a redesigned graphical user interface (GUI), expanded automation capabilities, and enhanced support for the latest high-precision timing technologies.
As telecommunications, power, transportation, data centers, and other critical infrastructure networks evolve, operators are increasingly deploying more complex synchronization architectures to enhance network resilience, reduce reliance on GNSS, and maintain precise clock alignment in distributed environments. The TimePictra 12 platform meets these needs with enhanced features, including managing High-Accuracy Time Transfer (HA-TT) connections, monitoring GNSS observables using Microchip's BlueSky™ technology, and maintaining clock alignment using SkyWire™ technology.
The platform also leverages BlueSky technology for monitoring to enhance GNSS visibility and resilience. The TimePictra 12 platform enables centralized monitoring of GNSS observables, helping operators better understand GNSS conditions, identify anomalies, and manage timing infrastructure in environments with stringent requirements for GNSS availability, integrity, and security.
Additionally, the TimePictra 12 platform supports maintaining clock alignment using SkyWire technology, helping operators maintain synchronization accuracy across distributed network elements. This capability is particularly important as networks become more distributed, automated, and reliant on precise phase and frequency alignment.
"Operators are seeking more than basic synchronization monitoring; they need tools that help them confidently manage advanced timing architectures," said Randy Brudzinski, corporate vice president of Microchip's Frequency and Timing Systems business unit. "With the TimePictra 12 platform, Microchip enables customers to manage HA-TT connections, GNSS reception, and distributed clock alignment from a centralized platform designed for next-generation critical infrastructure networks."
The TimePictra 12 software suite introduces a refreshed user experience designed to simplify how operators interact with large, meshed synchronization environments. The modernized GUI makes it easier to view network relationships, identify issues, and streamline ongoing management, helping reduce operational overhead in telecommunications, power, data centers, and other timing-dependent sectors such as telecom, power, transportation, data centers, and AI infrastructure.
To help minimize deployment challenges, the software is designed to accelerate network deployment, upgrades, and configuration activities. The TimePictra 12 platform supports up to 5,000 network elements, more than double the network scale of earlier versions, providing higher capacity for large-scale synchronization deployments.
The TimePictra 12 platform supports Microchip's extensive range of synchronization products, including the TimeProvider® 4100, 4500, and 5000 master clocks, SSU-2000, TimeCesium® 4400 and 5071 products, SkyWire technology, and BlueSky GNSS firewall. It enables centralized monitoring, configuration, and management of these devices across critical infrastructure networks such as 5G, utilities, transportation, substations, AI, and data centers. Device compatibility may depend on software version and licensing; customers should consult Microchip's official documentation for the latest supported products and configuration details.
The TimePictra 12 platform is now available as a new purchase or upgrade option. For more information and purchasing, contact a Microchip sales representative or an authorized global distributor.
