Abstract

See full text

A signal isolating device for an input digital signal has a first photo-coupler which is activated by the differential pulse produced at the leading edge of the digital signal and a second photo-coupler which is activated by the differential pulse produced at the trailing edge of the digital signal. A positive feedback system is connected in push-pull fashion with the photo-couplers for producing an output digital signal that corresponds to the input digital signal. The positive feedback system may be implemented by a buffer that includes a resistor for keeping the buffer in a stable state even when both of the photo-couplers are non-conductive.
