Abstract:
A system and method are disclosed for providing electrically isolated communications between two USB2 devices. Two isolating eUSB2 repeaters are utilized to implement a digital isolation barrier between the two USB2 devices. The isolating eUSB2 repeaters are configured to broker isolated communications between the two USB2 devices using a modified eUSB2 protocol that allows the two isolating eUSB2 repeaters to interoperate across the isolating barrier. The modified eUSB2 protocol allows the two isolating eUSB2 repeaters to broker isolating communications on behalf of the USB2 devices without the use of an accurate clock signal. The modified eUSB2 protocol utilized by the isolating eUSB2 repeaters is configured in particular to support certain end-of-packet translations between USB2 data and the modified eUSB2 protocol, management of certain USB2 bus state transitions and assignment of roles to the two isolating eUSB2 repeaters.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for providing electrically isolated communications, the system comprising:\n a first digital transceiver operable to communicate with a second digital transceiver, wherein the digital transceiver communications are digital signals, and wherein the digital transceiver communications are conducted via an electrically isolating communication interface; the second digital transceiver; a first isolating embedded Universal Serial Bus 2.0 (eUSB2) repeater coupled to the first digital transceiver and further coupled to a first USB2 device, the first isolating eUSB2 repeater operable to translate between USB2 communications with the first USB2 device and the digital signals and further operable to communicate the digital signals to the first digital transceiver; and a second isolating eUSB2 repeater coupled to the second digital transceiver and further coupled to a second USB2 device, the second isolating eUSB2 repeater operable to translate between USB2 communications with the second USB2 device and the digital signals and further operable to communicate the digital signals to the second digital transceiver.
