Huh, ok. So.. strobe is a meta-term for a line that
pulses with some
regularity? Seems like kind of a redundant term, since we have 'pulse' as
well.
Any signal can pulse. The term "strobe" usually carries the connotation that the
pulse latches or otherwise qualifies values present on other signals. I guess that you
might say that "pulse" is what is does, and "strobe" is why it does
it.
