What does MCLK stand for?

Every single cell in the body - whether from the kidney, liver or heart - has its own internal clock, and each of these are synchronized and coordinated by one master clock, located in a particular cluster of neurons in the brain.

This standard, which is highly useful for telecommunications and mulimedia equipment developers, is now available for any system designer who is interested in synchronizing instruments with a master clock and in simplifying troubleshooting operations.

In addition, word-clock i/o is provided on BNC connectors, allowing Liquid Saffire 56 to act as either a master clock for the studio or a slave to an existing clock.

More specifically, the two large clusters of neurons situated on either side of the brain called the Suprachiasmatic nuclei or SCN is considered the body''s master clock.

Such physical changes "can mute the light-dark signal sent to the body's master clock, presumably contributing to major sleep disturbances in seniors," says Figueiro.

The BITS is defined as the most accurate clock in an office, and is used as a master clock for all intraoffice equipment.
