EMI reduction with specific coding of counter signals

摘要

Apparatuses and a method for transmitting a counter signal in an imaging system are provided. Counter states of the counter signal are Gray coded to Gray coded counter states before transmission. Every second Gray coded counter state is inverted to an inverted counter state. The Gray coded counter states inverted in every second counter state are transmitted and are decoded on receipt.

1. A method for decoding a counter signal received after a transmission in an imaging system, the method comprising;
receiving counter states of the received counter signal; inverting every second received counter state to a Gray coded counter state; and converting the Gray coded counter states to binary code coded counter states.
