To keep the wall clock in sync with the reference clock, each week the owner compares the time on his wall clock to a more accurate clock (a phase comparison), and he resets his clock.

The paintings depict a king seated at the 12 o’clock position on top of the wheel; at 3 o’clock he is descending, hanging on for life; at 6 o’clock he is in rags, upside down, clinging to the wheel; and at 9 o’clock he is ascending again to the throne.

Sometimes the reference clock is the same frequency as the clock driven through the clock distribution, other times the distributed clock may be some rational multiple of the reference.

To adjust for the transit time of the signal from the master clock to the slave clock, the phase of the slave clock may be adjusted with respect to the signal from the master clock so that both clocks are in phase.

Though the city could have simply replaced the clock, the council decided to build another clock tower instead, arguing that the existing clock could not be seen from everywhere.

Local horologist and curator of the tower clock, Mark Webber, said the reason the clock was not working was because it was a wind-up clock that needed to be properly wound and maintained.

Clock distribution Typically, the reference clock enters the chip and drives a phase locked loop (PLL), which then drives the system's clock distribution.

During an interval of time τ, as measured by the reference clock, the clock under test advances by τy, where y is the average (relative) clock frequency over that interval.

In clock language, a "one" transitions to or remains at a biased level on the trailing clock edge of the previous bit, while "zero" transitions to or remains at no bias on the trailing clock edge of the previous bit.

No clock to kill A well-worn baseball In clock-limited sports, games often end with a team that holds the lead killing the clock rather than competing aggressively against the opposing team.

Slave clock synchronization is usually achieved by phase -locking the slave clock signal to a signal received from the master clock.

Therefore, despite being very fast clock by clock, the 6x86 and MII were forced to compete at the low-end of the market as AMD K6 and Intel P6 Pentium II were always ahead on clock speed.

As the clock struck two o'clock and team news arrived, North End's team had an immediate vibe of grit and graft upon first glance.

For night, investing blackout curtains or blinds can help, while in the morning a light-up alarm clock can get your body clock running smoothly.

Some local wishes that have been granted include a meet and greet with The Wiggles, the adoption of a Groodle puppy (called Gizmo), and a visit to the Big Ben Clock tower in Brisbane, with the young boy being the VIP clock keeper for the day.
