Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain the communication between other equipments even if one equipment connected to a common transmission line is subjected to power off state by applying control that a signal line connection point and a return connection point are brought into a high impedance state in the equipment whose power is turned off. CONSTITUTION:When a voltage on a power line 17 is a prescribed value or below, a base current of a transistor (TR) 103 is cut off by a Zener diode 101 and then a TR 105 is turned off. In this case, since the cathod of a diode 15 and a power line 17 are cut off by the TR 105, the signal on the signal line 4 is not short-circuited by the equipment 1 and the equipments 2, 3 are communicated. Thus, the impedance connected between the signal line 4 and the return 5 in the equipments 1, 2, 3 is controlled to be high while the power supply is turned off, even if the power is turned off in the equipment connected to a common transmission line, the equipments whose power is turned on are communicated.

34). This signal has a logic “1” of 5V
Assume that there is a digital signal in the vicinity where logic "0" is OV.

In the example shown in FIG. 3, the termination circuit is the first diode (16), (26) as explained above.
