I assume you're thinking of overclocking?
Basically, as I understand, it goes through two stages:
Now I haven't taken any class on this subject so I'm just replying for the sake of refining my own understanding.
Programming language is a tool of communication, a middleman, as our brains understand logics and ideas while the computer brains only understand zeros and ones. We translate "if Andy is greater than or equal to 21, then he can consume alcohol" into "0101001011010101010100101010101010101010".
Digital Electronic technology converts that code that the computer understands into a physical phenomenon that is voltages signalling "true" and "false" -- high and low voltages. That is: "0101001011010101010100101010101010101010" into "nozap-zap-nozap-zap-nozap-nozap-..."
That, or the other way around. Voltage -> binary system (true/false) -> computer "brains" -> programming language.

- Human brains --> computer communication: Programming language
- Computer brains --> hardware operations: Digital circuits
