Abstract
Binary data is transmitted as signals of two different pulsewidths to respectively represent logic "0" and "1". At the data receiver, the ratio of the pulsewidths is converted into a corresponding voltage ratio, which, in turn, is applied through a voltage divider to develop clock- and data-control signals at two different levels. Switching devices are respectively actuated whenever the clock- and data-control signals reach preset voltage levels to respectively produce self-synchronized clock and data pulses corresponding to the received binary data.
