Within a computer, communication is most often accomplished with synchronous communication due to a microprocessor clock that executes tasks in scheduled cycles. Which means that the clocks of the devices that transmit and receive data must be synchronized, this means that they must run at the same time so that the signals are at the same intervals and the data does not need to stop and to start. process of sending data. Another way to think of synchronous communications is that they happen in real time. Synchronous is the opposite of asynchronous, asynchronous is the process of sending data and then it is not received automatically, but it has a start and stop and starts sending again when the recipient requests the
