A scalable system and method for redundant timing. A clock CT<SUB>o </SUB>is set to count a time T<SUB>o</SUB>. One more time increment e<SUB>i</SUB> are defined for other clocks CT<SUB>i</SUB>, each to count a times T<SUB>i</SUB>=T<SUB>i-1 </SUB>+ e<SUB>i</SUB>. After the earliest time that a timer CT<SUB>j</SUB> completes counting its time, an event E is caused to occur and an event F is caused to occur with regard to at least one of the timers CT<SUB>k</SUB>, k being an integer from j+1 to N. |
