Abstract
An oscillator includes: a resonator; an oscillation circuit configured to generate an oscillation signal by the resonator; a clock output terminal; an output circuit configured to output a clock signal to an external processing device via the clock output terminal; a first terminal; and an interface circuit configured to execute communication with the processing device by a data signal. In the communication, the output circuit outputs the clock signal to the processing device that is a master for the communication, and the interface circuit that is a slave for the communication receives, via the first terminal, the data signal that is transmitted from the processing device and synchronized with the clock signal, or transmits, via the first terminal, the data signal to the processing apparatus in synchronization with the clock signal.
