Newly announced as "the world's smallest, lowest power atomic oscillator is this SA.45 Chip Scale Atomic Clock. With improvements in size, weight, and power, it's designed to provide atomic clock technology accuracy and stability. These instruments offer precise synchronization as marine geophysical sensors. As crews seek drilling locations, they send out acoustic pulses that hit and penetrate the ocean floor. Sensors time-stamp when a pulse is received. Post-processing of sensor data indicates likely drilling locations.
