In computing, the clock rate or clock speed typically refers to the frequency at which the clock generator of a processor can generate pulses, which are used to synchronize the operations of its components, and is used as an indicator of the processor's speed. It is measured in the SI unit of frequency hertz (Hz).

Clock rate - Wikipedia Jump to content From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Frequency at which a CPU chip or core is operating "Clocking" redirects here. For the practice of tampering with odometers to read less mileage, see Odometer fraud . Microprocessor clock speed measures the number of pulses per second generated by an oscillator that sets the tempo for the processor. It is measured in hertz (pulses per second). In computing , clock rate or clock speed is the frequency at which the clock generator of a processor can generate pulses used to synchronize the operations of its components. [
