What is word clock?
Word clock is a square-wave signal that is transmitted via a 75 Ohm BNC connector. A square wave alternates between high and low states, which makes it ideal as a timing reference. Because many devices can use word clock signals as their master timing reference, it has become a standard type of digital audio system clock.
