Abstract

A serial communication port structure for starting and stopping an internal clock. This internal clock is designed, in operation, to generate a clock output signal to be transmitted to a device external to the system in which the serial communication port is incorporated. By ANDing the clock output signal with a data output signal of predetermined length, the serial communication port can effectively control the passage of time as sensed by the external device.
