            Abstract : 
The lack of synchronous communication channel is a major obstacle for the application Ethernet to the motion control systems. Based on the IEEE-1588 precision clock synchronization protocol, in this paper, a new distributed interpolator have been studied. The PVT-based distributed interpolation scheme that only relies on a clock synchronization of Ethernet can achieve accurate synchronization between servo controllers without synchronous communication.
