Abstract
A signal transceiving system includes: a first signal transceiver terminal; and a second signal transceiver terminal wired coupled to the first signal transceiver terminal. The first signal transceiver terminal transmits a digital signal to the second signal transceiver terminal. In response to detection of a first signal edge, the second signal transceiver terminal starts counting of a first time slot. Based on a count of at least one signal edge detected during the first time slot, the second signal transceiver terminal judges the digital signal as being logic “0” or logic “1”.
Claims18
A signal transceiving system including:
- a first signal transceiver terminal;
- and
- a second signal transceiver terminal wired coupled to the first signal transceiver terminal;
- wherein
- the first signal transceiver terminal transmits a digital signal to the second signal transceiver terminal;
- in response to detection of a first signal edge, the second signal transceiver terminal starts counting of a first time slot;
- and
- based on a count of at least one signal edge detected during the first time slot, the second signal transceiver terminal judges the digital signal as being logic “0” or logic “1”;
- and
- wherein the detection of the first signal edge comprises that signal level of the digital signal rises or falls to a signal edge trigger reference level;
- and
- wherein the second signal transceiver terminal includes an input/output pin group and at least two buffer groups, a plurality of digital signals received via the input/output pin groups and determined by the second signal transceiver terminal being alternatively written into and read from the buffer groups.
A signal transceiving method applied to a signal transceiving system including a first signal transceiver terminal a second signal transceiver terminal wired coupled to the first signal transceiver terminal, the signal transceiving method including:
- transmitting a digital signal from the first signal transceiver terminal to the second signal transceiver terminal;
- in response to detection of a first signal edge, starting counting of a first time slot by the second signal transceiver terminal;
- and
- based on a count of at least one signal edge detected during the first time slot, judging the digital signal as being logic “0” or logic “1” by the second signal transceiver terminal;
- wherein the detection of the first signal edge comprises that signal level of the digital signal rises or falls to a signal edge trigger reference level;
- and
- wherein the second signal transceiver terminal includes an input/output pin group and at least two buffer groups, a plurality of digital signals received via the input/output pin groups and determined by the second signal transceiver terminal being alternatively written into and read from the buffer groups.
