Abstract
A processing device according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes: a toggle signal reception circuit configured to receive a toggle signal a value of which transitions between binary values at a timing of a pulse of a frequency-divided clock signal in which a periodic pattern signal is repeated, pulses of the periodic pattern signal being generated by masking predetermined pulses of a mask pulse number among consecutive pulses of a periodic pulse number in an input clock signal, the mask pulse number being smaller than the periodic pulse number; and a communication circuit configured to communicate with another processing device operated by the frequency-divided clock signal at the timing of the pulse of the frequency-divided clock signal among the pulses of the input clock signal, the timing of the pulse of the frequency-divided clock signal being specified using the toggle signal.
