Abstract:
Briefly, in accordance with one embodiment of the invention, a method of transmitting coded data signals over a bus having a limited bandwidth includes: transmitting a first edge of a data pulse and transmitting a second edge of the data pulse. The time period between the transmitted first edge and the transmitted second edge approximates one of a set of different predetermined time periods. Selected different predetermined time periods of the set of different predetermined time periods respectively correspond to unique pluralities of binary digital signals.
Briefly, in accordance with another embodiment of the invention, a system comprises a first device, a second device and a bandlimited bus coupling the first device with the second device. At least one of the devices includes the capability to code data signals for transfer over the bus and at least the other device includes the capability to decode the data signals. The data signals are coded so that selected different durations between pairs of successive data signal edges respectively correspond to unique pluralities of binary digital signals.
