Full Desc
a control signal, used with synchronous digital circuits, configured to oscillate between a high state and a low state at a particular rate or frequency, measured in clock cycles, for a communication interface. Common clock signals operate such that the signal forms a square wave with a 50% duty cycle. Electronic components rely on a clock signal operating at a constant, fixed frequency. Circuits using a clock signal for synchronization may become active at either the rising edge, falling edge, or, in the case of double data rate, both in the rising and in the falling edges of the clock cycle.
