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 1):
A communication apparatus comprising:\n a first terminal to which a reference voltage is input from an external apparatus; a second terminal to which a pulse signal is input from the external apparatus; a clock generating unit configured to generate a clock signal that has a frequency higher than a frequency of the pulse signal; a counting unit configured to count a number of pulses of the clock signal; an acquiring unit configured to acquire a count value counted by the counting unit during a first cycle that is a cycle of the pulse signal input to the second terminal; and a transmitting unit configured to, during a period of data transmission to the external apparatus, increase or decrease an electric current that flows between the communication apparatus and the external apparatus via the first terminal according to a data value of data to be transmitted to the external apparatus, wherein the transmitting unit is further configured to perform switching on the data to be transmitted to the external apparatus at least once during the first cycle, and determine a data switch timing during the first cycle based on the count value.
