DATA TRANSLATION SYSTEM AND METHOD

摘要

An optocoupler transmission system (900) for controlling signal transmission through an optocoupler transmission medium, the optocoupler transmission system (900) comprising:
an optocoupler (115); and
a controller (920) coupled to the optocoupler (115) and configured to receive a transmit attempt from a first device (905), determine if a second device (907) is already transmitting through the optocoupler (115), determine if receiving the transmit attempt is outside a deadband period after a power-up occurrence, and transmit from the first device (905) through the optocoupler (115) if the second device (907) is not transmitting and if the deadband period has elapsed.
