A steady pulse from a generator which is used for synchronizing sequencers, drum machines, etc. Common sequencer timing clock rates are 24, 48, 96,120,240,384,or 480 pulses-per-quarter note. MIDI timing clocks run at a rate of 24 ppqn. Also called the resolution, PPQ, ticks, etc of a sequencer, ie Logic Audio uses 980 pulses-per-quarter note to control timing of MIDI events.
The device used to time the 25-minute-per-game allotment per player. Electronic timers are preferred followed by analog timers, such as those used in chess.
A clock is a signal or pulse that is issued coincident with the presence of valid data at the output of an F2F decoder. Data is usually valid on the falling edge of the clock.
The SIMUL8 Clock is a vital element of every simulation. There are 2 main reasons for this: The clock allows the SIMUL8 user to "see" what the model is doing during each simulated time period by displaying a clock face. The clock schedules when events will happen to work items, like when jobs start, when they stop, and when a new item will enter the simulation. It creates a list of when these will take place, and this forms the core of the simulation
A repetitive signaling device used to control a synchronous computer.
A device providing signals used in a transmission system to control the timing of certain functions such as the duration of signal elements or the sampling rate. A device that generates periodic, accurately spaced signals used for such purposes as timing, regulation of the operations of a processor, or generation of interrupts.

A steady pulse from a generator which is used for synchronizing sequencers, drum machines, etc. Common sequencer timing clock rates are 24, 48, or 96 pulses-per-quarter note. MIDI timing clocks run at a rate of 24 ppqn. The EIII clock runs at 96 ppqn.
Equipment that provides a timing signal.
In serious TOURNAMENTS and MATCHES each player has a fixed amount of time to play either a certain number of moves or the whole game. A player who exceeds the time limit loses as long as his opponent has enough MATERIAL left to get CHECKMATE. A chess clock has two races. On making a move the player presses the button on top of his clock to start his opponent's clock ticking. Digital clocks are now being used in many TOURNAMENTS.
Most churches have them, not all are working. Where churches have clocks and bells, they are usually linked together so that the bells will sound the hours, and usually quarters as well.

Digital signal in the form of a rectangular pulse train or a square wave.
An electronic circuit that generates evenly spaced pulses at speeds of millions of cycles per second. The pulses are used to synchronize the flow of information through the computers internal communication channels.
A signal defined for the purpose of synchronizing the actions of a system component, so that the behavior is reliable, repeatable, and stable. Clocks controling the data path vs. the control path of a design thread are represented separately in flowHDL.
A special circuit that sends pulses of current to the CPU and other computer components.
The electronic circuit in a computer that generates a steady stream of timing pulses - the digital signals that synchronize every operation. The system clock signal is precisely set by a quartz crystal, typically at a specific frequency between 1 and 50 megahertz. The clock rate of a computer is one of the prime determinants of its overall processing speed, and it can go as high as the other components of the computer allow.
The device used for timing total time taken by each player during a game. Generally, any fraction of a minute over time costs the player 10 points PLUS each further minute over time attracts an additional 10-point penalty. ANALOGUE CLOCK Has two clock dials plus a flag on each side which drops when the minute hand exactly reaches the number 12. DIGITAL CLOCK Has a digital display on each side which will display a negative number when a player has gone over time.
Devices which produce a clock pulse used to ensure the correct timing of other devices on the board / schematic.
On computers the system clock is an electronic circuit, which keeps a constant stream of pulses. These pulses help to synchronize the computer operation. Generally it is a quartz crystal, which is operating between 1-50 Mega Hertz (MHz). The clock speed helps to determine the overall processing speed of the computer system.

Any electronic oscillator used to generate a timing reference signal. Its purpose is to synchronise the data being taken from a disc by a CD or DVD player.
Paired clocks used in all official tournaments and in club games. After a player moves, he depresses a lever that stops his clock and starts his opponent's. Each clock, therefore, registers only the elapsed time for one player. If a player exceeds the time limit set on his clock, a flag falls and he loses the game, even if he has a clear winning position.
Any of several types of timing control devices, or the periodic signals that they generate. A sequencer's internal clock is always set to some number of pulses per quarter-note (ppq), and this setting is one of the main factors that determine how precisely the sequencer can record time-dependent information. The actual clock speed is usually determined by the beats-per-minute setting. See ppq, bpm, MIDI clock.
An oscillator producing timing pulses to synchronize various elements of a system. In switching mode power supplies, a clock is used to produce the power pulses that are modulated to control power transfer. In digital interfaces that communicate on a bus (such as the IEEE-488) a clock is used to synchronize the data transfer and commands.

The word clock is derived from the medieval Latin "clocca" meaning a bell, and the earliest alarm clocks did not possess dials but merely sounded a bell at an appointed time

A clock signal (in electronic music) is a regular series of electronic pulses sent from one sequencer to another in order to keep the two units properly synchronized (a system which is mainly associated with drum machines). In MIDI, the clock signal is a regular series of MIDI clock messages, rather than just a simple series of pulses.

A clock (from the Latin cloca, "bell") is an instrument for measuring time. The clock in its most common, modern form (in use since at least the 14th century) displays the time in hours, minutes, and often seconds during a 12- or 24-hour period.
The clock, in cryptology, was a method devised by Polish mathematician-cryptologist Jerzy Różycki, at the Polish General Staff's Cipher Bureau, to facilitate decrypting German Enigma messages. This method sometimes made it possible to determine which of the Enigma machine's rotors was at the far right, that is, in the position where the rotor always revolved at every depression of a key.
