 We are testing with NRF9160 and building on top of k _uptime _ticks, I find the precision of the ticks clock to be ~70 ppm, while testing on my desk. According to the specification. https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/ps_nrf9160/page</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Mon, 31 Mar 2025 11:58:23 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/120292/nrf9160-ticks-accuracy" /><item><title>RE: NRF9160 ticks accuracy</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/529781?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 31 Mar 2025 11:58:23 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:e189ecd5-bd22-4438-b1a0-85bf534895c8</guid><dc:creator>Hung Bui</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi Sjors,&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;The 32kHz RC internal oscillator has much lower accuracy than 70ppm (according to spec it&amp;#39;s 30%). So I think the chip is using the XTAL already.&lt;br /&gt;Could you give the part number of the crystal and the layout and schematic of the board ?&lt;br /&gt;Could you tell how you measured the accuracy of the ticks?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
