Clocks are not required at all, even for digital computers. They only make designing computers a lot simpler.
- Zamicol 5y agoClockless computers don't have a global clock but they still have components that "tick".
- Dylan16807 5y agoDepending on the design, no more than abacus has components that "tick". And I'd never say an abacus requires a clock to function. If even a single bit gets hung up in a straightforward clockless design, everything else waits for it. None of that is really visible to something inside the computer, though. The OP is describing calculation steps, not clock cycles.
