{n} an instrument to show time, beetle, large insect, ornament, part of a stocking
To call, as a hen
An oscillator-generated signal that provides a timing reference for a transmission link; used to control the timing of functions such as sampling interval, signaling rate, and duration of signal elements
A clock tracks the passage of time and reports the current time instant, like a real clock However, most clocks used in ESMF components have a key difference to a real clock Clocks in an ESMF component are generally stepped forward by the component, as an explicitly coded time step within the overall component
Associated with the CPU The clock generates a frequency that times the system's operations A computer that operates at 200 MHz, has a CPU clock operating at 200 million cycles per second Each instruction requires one or more clock cycles Thus the faster the clock speed, the faster the computer processes data The clock that puts the time and date on the screen is a separate clock-calendar chip
If you want to turn the clock back or put the clock back, you want to return to a situation that used to exist, usually because the present situation is unpleasant. In some ways we wish we could turn the clock back We cannot put back the clock. An embroidered or woven decoration on the side of a stocking or sock. Machine or electronic device that measures and records time. Both simple and elaborate clocks, as well as sundials, candle clocks, and sandglasses, were used for measuring time in ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome. The first mechanical clocks were weight-driven and perhaps were invented for use in monasteries, where the disciplined life required a strict rendering of time. The first European public clock that struck the hours was erected in Milan in 1335, and the oldest surviving clocks are in England (1386) and France (1389). The first domestic clocks appeared late in the 14th century. About 1500 Peter Henlein, a German locksmith, began to make the first portable timepieces, small clocks driven by a spring. Christiaan Huygens invented pendulum clocks in 1656. Big Ben, the great clock at Westminster in London, was installed in 1859 and is the standard for all accurate tower pendulum clocks. The most accurate mechanical timekeepers (within a few thousandths of a second per day) are clocks with short pendulums (about 39 in. [or 990 mm]). In 1929 the vibration of a quartz crystal was first applied to timekeeping; the maximum error of an observatory quartz-crystal clock is only a few ten-thousandths of a second per day. The first atomic clock went into operation in 1951. Atomic clocks, regulated by the natural periodic behaviour of a system of atoms (such as vibrations or emission of radiation), can have accuracies exceeding one billionth of a second per day, making them the most accurate clocks yet invented
measure the time or duration of an event or action or the person who performs an action in a certain period of time; "he clocked the runners"
A clock is an instrument, for example in a room or on the outside of a building, that shows what time of day it is. He was conscious of a clock ticking He also repairs clocks and watches a digital clock
An object used to abstract time in Mach
To take notice of
also known as a molecular clock One of the most important assumptions that is often made using molecular data is the existence of a clock In other words, there is sometimes an assumption being made either implicitly or explicitly that the rate of change of residues in molecules is approximately constant Making this assumption is fraught with dangers, but a great many empirical studies have shown that (with some errors) the assumption of a clock often holds true If there are some good reference points (say, fossils or significant geological events) it is sometimes possible to use molecular data to estimate the time of events for which there is no other alternative
The original 645 shipped with a separate box that was a microsecond realtime clock with the ability to interrupt any CPU On the 6180, the clock moved into the SCU and didn't take up a port See SCAS The calendar clock value read by the rccl instruction is 52 bits (right-justified in the 72-bit AQ register) Story: "Multics Calendar Clock Calculations"
A time clock in a factory or office is a device that is used to record the hours that people work. Each worker puts a special card into the device when they arrive and leave, and the times are recorded on the card. Government workers were made to punch time clocks morning, noon and night

As related to the year 2000 issue, an independent timekeeping circuit (called the Real Time Clock or RTC) used within a microcomputer to keep track of the time and calendar date A clock/calendar circuit is battery powered, so it continues running even when the computer is turned off The time and date kept by the clock/calendar can be used by the operating system (for example, to "stamp" files with the date and time of creation or revision) and by application programs via calls to the BIOS (for example, to insert the date or time in a document) Not to be confused with the computer's system clock, one of the prime determinants of the overall processing speed
To clock a particular time or speed in a race means to reach that time or speed. Elliott clocked the fastest time this year for the 800 metres
A clock is used to synchronize two devices In MIDI, the term clock is used to denote a single time source, which everything plays along with MIDI clocks are actually special messages that are sent 24 times (normally) per beat, and are used to synchronize two sequencers, or a sequencer and a drum machine Normally, the sequencer's clock is the important one Other clock sources are rarely used, and, typically, only when doing a final recording
A large beetle, esp
A machine for measuring time, indicating the hour and other divisions by means of hands moving on a dial plate
Its works are moved by a weight or a spring, and it is often so constructed as to tell the hour by the stroke of a hammer on a bell
refers to the clock on the RoboBoard, based around a crystal-controlled oscillator circuit The crystal is set to resonate at a specific frequency and produces an analog sine wave The frequency generated by the clock is the master frequency of the board
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
the European dung beetle (Scarabæus stercorarius)
In a car, the clock is the instrument that shows the speed of the car or the distance it has travelled. The car had 160,000 miles on the clock
A special circuit that sends pulses of current to the CPU and other computer components

If something is done round the clock or around the clock, it is done all day and all night without stopping. Rescue services have been working round the clock to free stranded motorists
A figure or figured work on the ankle or side of a stocking
A digital pulse generator that controls the timing of a computer and, to a great extent, determines the speed (number of instructions per second) capability of the computer Generally, it is located in the CPU
An oscillator-generated signal that provides a timing reference for a transmission link used to control the timing functions such as sampling interval, signaling rate, & duration of signal elements; an "enclosed" digital network typically has only one master clock
A component of the CPU that produces pulses at a fixed rate to synchronize all computer operations
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 striking of a clock
A device in a computer that emits timing pulses used to synchronize the operation of the computer
a timepiece that shows the time of day
A repetitive or cyclic timing signal to coordinate state changes in a digital system A clock can coordinate the movement of data and results through various stages of processing Although a clock signal is digital, the source of the repetitive signal is almost always an analog circuit In an analog system we might produce a known delay by slowly charging a capacitor and measuring the voltage across it continuously until the voltage reaches the desired level A big problem with this is that the circuit becomes increasingly susceptible to noise at the end of the interval In a digital system we create a delay by simply counting clock cycles Since all external operations are digital, noise effects are virtually eliminated, and we can easily create accurate delays which are as long as the count in any counter we can build
