Abstract

[Problems] To realize a reliable and stable transfer of digital data that does not require a reference clock and a handshake operation.[Means for Solving the Problem] The present invention provides a digital data transfer method for alternately and periodically transferring first information and second information respectively in a first period and in a second period, wherein: an amount of information of the first information per unit time in the first period is greater than an amount of information of the second information per unit time in the second period; and the second information in the first period is transferred as pulse-width-modulated serial data.
