Abstract: A signal processor (30) is provided. The signal processor (30) is configured to receive a first analog signal and convert the first analog signal into a digital signal. The digital signal is transmitted across an electrical barrier and converted into a scaled pulse width modulation signal. The scaled pulse width modulation signal is then converted into a scaled second analog signal, which is output by the signal processor (30).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating second pulse signal from a first pulse signal. The second pulse signal has flanks positioned with a well-defined spacing. The width of the pulses as well as the frequency and phase correspond to the first signal. The apparatus employs a shape generator for generating a shape signal having uniform and well-defined flanks. A frequency generator produces a clock signal wherein the clock and phase correspond to the first pulse signal. The signal generator produces a second pulse signal from the clock signal and the shape signal for use in restoring distorted digital signals to ensure accuracy and signal integrity.
