isochronous
/i:-sok'rn-*s/ A form of data transmission
that guarantees to provide a certain minimum {data rate}, as
required for time-dependent data such as {video} or {audio}.
Isochronous transmission transmits asynchronous data over a
synchronous data link so that individual characters are only
separated by a whole number of bit-length intervals. This is
in contrast to {asynchronous} transmission, in which the
characters may be separated by arbitrary intervals, and with
{synchronous} transmission [which does what?].
{Asynchronous Transfer Mode} and {High Performance Serial Bus}
can provide isochronous service.
Compare: {plesiochronous}.
