Abstract: Isolation circuits for digital communications and methods to provide isolation for digital communications are disclosed. An example isolation circuit includes an isolation barrier, a burst encoder in a first circuit, and an edge pattern detector in a second circuit. The example isolation barrier electrically isolates the first circuit from the second circuit. The example burst encoder generates a first pattern in response to receiving a rising edge on an input signal and generates a second pattern in response to receiving a falling edge on the input signal. The example edge pattern detector detects the first pattern or the second pattern received from the burst encoder via the isolation barrier, sets an output signal at a first signal level in response to detecting the first pattern, and sets the output signal at a second signal level in response to detecting the second pattern.

Abstract: In described examples, a first isolation element electrically isolates a first circuit from a second circuit and passes AC signals between the first circuit and the second circuit. A second isolation element electrically isolates the first circuit from the second circuit and passes AC signals between the first circuit and the second circuit. A ground of the second circuit electrically floats relative to a ground of the first circuit, so that a digital signal is able to pass from the second circuit through a third isolation element to the first circuit. A supply voltage generation device converts AC signals from the first isolation element and the second isolation element into at least one DC voltage to power the second circuit.
