The shield of the cable is broken into segments at each location Each shield segment is DC grounded at one end SHIELD OUT and terminated with a small capacitor at the other SHIELD IN The segmenting breaks up long ground loop paths The capacitor termination reduces common mode noise from high frequency pickup while preventing large ground loop currents in the shield at low frequencies The alternately switching transistors produce a negative pulse followed by a positive pulse across SERIAL 1 relative to SERIAL 2 The bit waveform is a series of these pulses The transformer provides isolation 2500 volts test between the bus and the local logic permitting these to be at different voltages The internal resistors in each line provide current limit and some termination during transmission The balanced differential signals on the twisted pair provide high noise immunity due to the magnetic H field cancellation effect of the twisting as well as electric E field reduction by the shielding Most remaining noise pickup is common mode the transformer provides a high common mode noise rejection by looking only at the differential signal across the SER 1 2 lines The two input comparators detect the positive polarity input pulses separately from the negative these are sent to a custom interface logic chip which digitally filters these for timing and sequence then reconstructs the NRZ digital data Voltages between the two thresholds are ignor
