- Sampling clocks are used for the conversion operation of analog input / output devices (A / D converter 36 and D / A converter 38).
- the sampling clocks of the devices may differ, and the clocks may be synchronized or transmitted. It is necessary to perform the sampling process again on the digital signal to absorb the clock difference.
