Claim Text:
1. A signal propagation system for communicating timing information, the system comprising: a processing resource arranged to generate a first timing signal for communicating the timing information, the first timing signal having a first frequency spectrum associated therewith; an electronic circuit having an input for receiving the timing information; a first electrical connection between the processing resource and the electronic circuit; and a signal transformation module for communicating the timing information and arranged to translate the first timing signal into a second timing signal for communicating the timing information, the translating comprising using the first timing signal to create the second timing signal having a waveform of a different shape than the first timing signal, the second timing signal having a second frequency spectrum associated therewith that comprises fewer harmonics than the first timing signal, thereby reducing electromagnetic energy emitted by the electrical connection, a second electrical connection between the processing resource and the electronic circuit, the processing resource being arranged to communicate a data signal to the electronic circuit via the second electrical connection; and a delay module arranged to receive the data signal and apply a first time delay to the data signal, the first time delay corresponding substantially to a second time delay experienced by the timing information.
