one of the ways of presenting information in the nervous system, based on the frequency of nerve impulses and the duration of pauses between them. The signal is transmitted through a variation in the intervals between spikes, the duration of the spike itself and its amplitude. Time codes are highly accurate and serve as an efficient way to transfer information between neurons. The time between bursts of activity allows you to adjust the strength of the signal and transmit a variety of information about the characteristics of the stimulus. The use of time codes provides flexibility and accuracy to the brain.
