A system for transferring information from a first circuit to a second circuit includes first and second isolation elements coupled between the first circuit and the second circuit. A first transient filter is located on the second circuit and coupled to the first isolation element. A second transient filter is located on the second circuit and coupled to the second isolation element. A first ground is located on the first circuit, and a second ground is located on the second circuit. The first ground electrically floats relative to the second ground.
