Patents by Inventor Brian Kirk Jadus

Brian Kirk Jadus has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8924621
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for a Universal Serial Bus (USB) isolating device. An USB isolating device includes a downstream facing circuit and a upstream facing circuit. The downstream facing circuit is coupled to a peripheral device via a first pair of signals and is configured for detecting a speed at which the peripheral device is operating based on a first voltage configuration on the first pair of signals. The upstream facing circuit is coupled to the downstream facing circuit and a host/hub via a second pair of signals and is configured for communicating with the downstream facing circuit on the speed of the peripheral device and adaptively creating a second voltage configuration on the second pair of signals to facilitate the host/hub to adapt to the speed of the peripheral device.

  • Patent number: 8175087
    Abstract: Method and system for serially sending data signals captured from multiple sources through a single unidirectional isolation component. Data signals from respective multiple sources are captured in parallel. Such captured data signals are stored in respective storages. The stored data signals are transferred, in serial, from the storages to a single unidirectional isolation component. Multiple concurrent processes for parallel data signal capture and serial data signal transfer via a single unidirectional isolation component are implemented so that the sampling effect on a first of the multiple processes is minimized.
