Provided is a transponder for transmitting navigation satellite time service information into a low frequency time-code time service signal. The device for providing a time service signal to an electric wave time service timekeeper comprises a low frequency time-code generating circuit, a carrier wave signal generating circuit, a modulator circuit, a power amplification circuit, a power supply, an outputting and sending unit, and the like, and is characterized in that the transponder is provided with an RS485 interface device, can receive a serial signal which is transmitted by a "navigation satellite time service information transponder", accords with an RS485 protocol and contains the satellite time service information, can obtain a 1 pulse per second (PPS) embedded in the signal and accurate time, and enables the sent low frequency time-code time service signal to have very high time service precision. According to the transponder provided by the invention, the electric wave time service timekeeper also can be used in the places or occasions that cannot receive the electric wave time service signal originally or stably. The outputting and sending unit of the transponder is formed by connecting a plurality of basic sending units in parallel, and one transponder can supply a signal source to many electric wave time service timekeepers.
