Abstract
In a system in which a plurality of modules have different operational rates and a common clock controlling data delivery to the modules, the rate at which data is delivered to the system can be maximized using a return clock signal to prevent the loss of synchronization of the modules. A clocking error signal may be produced when the clock signal makes a transition to a logic state that may cause loss of synchronization between the modules.
