Abstract:
A communication apparatus includes: a terminal to which a pulse signal is input from an external apparatus; an acquiring unit configured to acquire a count value during a first cycle that is a cycle of the pulse signal; and a transmitting unit configured to, during a period of data transmission, increase or decrease an electric current that flows between the communication apparatus and the external apparatus according to a data value of data to be transmitted. The transmitting unit is further configured to perform switching on the data to be transmitted at least once during the first cycle, and determine a data switch timing during the first cycle based on the count value.

Claim (Index 14):
A communication apparatus comprising:\n a first generating unit configured to generate a first pulse signal; a second generating unit configured to generate a second pulse signal based on the first pulse signal; a first terminal for outputting the second pulse signal to an external apparatus; a second terminal for outputting a reference voltage to the external apparatus; a storing unit configured to store determination timing information that indicates a determination timing of determining a data value received from the external apparatus by using a relative time relative to the first pulse signal; a determining unit configured to determine the data value received from the external apparatus based on an electric current that flows to the external apparatus via the second terminal at the determination timing indicated by the determination timing information; and a measurement unit configured to measure the determination timing and cause the storing unit to store the determination timing information.
