Abstract

A serial bus system for data communication between devices according to a master-slave protocol has a data bus connecting master and slave devices and a shared clock system arranged to provide a shared-clock signal to the master and slave devices. The master and slave devices are arranged to derive device-individual clock signals which are synchronized with data received on the data bus, from the shared-clock signal and a data-timing indication on the data bus.
