'''Synchronous''' is a term which means that some event, or device, operates on a clock, or with fixed timing.

A [[synchronous serial line]] uses a fixed clock (which is usually provided by one end, or by the transmission channel itself) which is carried on a separate signal line.

Contemporary logic design is usually synchronous; a clock signal is used to control when [[flip-flop]]s are clocked, etc.

+Contemporary logic design is usually synchronous; but older logic systems were often asynchronous, without use of a clock.
