A system and a method of transmitting data from a first device to a second device, both devices receiving a clock signal, the first device acting on a first flank of the clock signal and the second device acting on a second flank of the clock signal. A chain of this type of devices may be used, where every second device acts on the first flank and the others on the second flank. In this manner, the data transport may be provided at the clock frequency while allowing backpressure.
