Abstract

An internal clock signal of a logic/memory component that receives signals is transmitted as a reference clock to a transmitting logic/memory component. With the aid of the reference clock, the transmission clock of the output unit of the transmitting logic/memory component is generated, such that transmitted signals arrive in a receiving unit of the receiving component synchronously with the internal clock signal of that component.
