Patent ID: 6948023

Claim:
A transmission interface conversion device, which can first convert the communication signal of a master equipment controller and then connect to a plurality of slave devices through a pair of transmission lines so as to perform data transmission and power supply synchronously, comprising: a conversion interface, which is composed of at least one repeater circuit that has a tri-state output so that the repeater circuit can transmit data by half duplex, wherein said repeater circuit is composed of at least two sets of transmitters and receivers, wherein the two sets of transmitters and receivers is used as the transmitter and receiver of the master equipment controller and another set of transmitter and receiver is used as die drive transmitter and the receiver of the slave device; a signal inspector inspecting whether a signal has been transmitted to the conversion interface; a control unit determining the orientation and the operation method of the repeater circuit by using the signal inspected by the signal inspector; and a voltage adjuster provided at least two sets of electric power so as to supply the needed power to all above-mentioned circuits, wherein the first set of the two sets of electric power is to supply needed power to the drive transmitter of the slave device, whereas the second set of electric power is to supply the needed power to the circuits other than the drive transmitter, and further wherein the output voltage of the first set of power is higher than that of the second set of power.
