Abstract
System and method for transmitting and receiving. For example, the system includes a transmitter, one or more wires, and a receiver connected to the transmitter through the one or more wires. The transmitter is configured to generate a first current, and the receiver is configured to receive the first current. The receiver includes a coil, a Hall effect sensor, and a comparator, and the Hall effect sensor includes a first electrode and a second electrode. The coil is electrically isolated from the Hall effect sensor and configured to generate a magnetic field based at least in part on the first current flowing through the coil, and the Hall effect sensor is configured to sense the magnetic field and generate a first voltage at the first electrode and a second voltage at the second electrode. The comparator includes a first input terminal and a second input terminal.
