Abstract

Implementations related to systems, devices, and methods that make use of a master slave arrangement are described. In some implementations, a master device is configured to generate a clock signal and a slave device is coupled to the master device and is configured to receive the clock signal. The clock signal may control data behavior associated with the master device and the slave device. Additionally, the master device may have a power consumption rate that is lower than the power consumption rate of the slave device.
