ISOLATOR WITH COMPLEMENTARY CONFIGURABLE MEMORY
First Claim
1. :
- An isolator, comprising;
first and second substantially identical circuitry galvanically isolated from each other and each having at least one communications channel thereon for communicating signals across an isolation boundary therebetween and each of said first and second circuitry having configurable functionality associated with the operation thereof;
a coupling device coupling signal across said isolation boundary between said at least one communication channels of said first and second circuitry;
first and second configuration memories, each associated with a respective one of said first and second circuitry;
first and second configuration control devices, each associated with a respective one of said first and second circuitry and each configuring the functionality of the associated one of said first and second circuitry; and
said first and second configurable memories having stored therein complementary configuration information to control each of the functionalities of said first and second circuitry to operate in a complementary manner for communication of signals across said isolation boundary.

Abstract
An isolator that includes first and second substantially identical circuitry galvanically isolated from each other and each having at least one communications channel thereon for communicating signals across an isolation boundary therebetween and each of said first and second circuitry having configurable functionality associated with the operation thereof. A coupling device is provided for coupling signal across the isolation boundary between the at least one communication channels of the first and second circuitry. First and second configuration memories are provided, each associated with a respective one of the first and second circuitry. First and second configuration control devices are provided, each associated with a respective one of the first and second circuitry and each configuring the functionality of the associated one of the first and second circuitry. The first and second configurable memories have stored therein complementary configuration information to control each of the functionalities of the first and second circuitry to operate in a complementary manner for communication of signals across the isolation boundary.
