The clock is the amount of GHZ the processor can handle.

For example, the clock of a Core2Duo is of 2.4GHZ.

Overclocking means increasing the GHZ's the processor can handle but you will need a lot of cooling since the fan is not designed to handle such high GHZ's the people want.

What is the function clock out pin in 8085 microprocessor?

In the 8085 microprocessor, the clock out pin (often labeled as CLK OUT) provides a clock signal that can be used to synchronize external devices or circuits. This output clock signal is derived from the internal clock of the microprocessor and operates at a frequency determined by the oscillator connected to the clock input pin. It allows other components in a system to operate in sync with the microprocessor's timing, ensuring proper data transfer and communication.
