Abstract

A method for communication via a bidirectional data link between a processing device and a memory device. The memory device includes a clock source to generate a clock signal for driving a latching at the memory device of data to and/or from the bidirectional data link. The memory device provides the clock signal to the processing device for driving a latching at the processing device of data to and/or from the bidirectional data link.
