ABSTRACT:
A data output portion transmits a pulse signal having a pulse width according to a value of transmit data on a predetermined cycle. An H pulse width counter and an L pulse width counter measure a length of a high level period and a length of a low level period in the received pulse signal by using a clock signal having the same frequency as that of the clock signal used in the data output portion. A comparing portion compares the sum of both the measured lengths of the periods with the predetermined cycle, and outputs an error signal in case of a mismatch. In a PWM communication system, it is also possible to detect a signal delay or an error of the clock signal, which is temporarily caused within one cycle.
