sub-millisecond time sync

I'd like to get to sub-millisecond accuracy in order to do time sync over a BLE connection or WIFI connection.

Is it possible to achieve this  with the rw612?

Thanks for any help!

Hi, @flybir 

As I know, for some Wi-Fi chipsets which support FTM/RTT feature can do time sync.

But unfortunately, our RW612 doesn't support FTM and RTT feature. So I  think WiFi side, it could not achieve sub-millisecond time synchronization.

In BLE side, it also doesn't provide any time-sync or timestamping hardware.

So, I worry it could not achieve this with RW612.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Please let me know if you have any other concerns on this case.

 

Best regards,

Christine.
