Abbreviation for 'clock' in electronics and computing, referring to timing signals that synchronize digital operations. The regular pulse that coordinates computer processes.
Abbreviation of 'clock', from Middle Dutch 'clocke' meaning 'bell'. In electronics, the term emerged with digital circuits needing synchronized timing signals, borrowing from mechanical timepieces.
CLK signals are the heartbeat of digital civilization - without these precisely timed pulses, computers would be chaos. Every calculation, every pixel on your screen, every keystroke depends on billions of synchronized clock cycles happening with atomic precision.
