Abstract
A circuit for both transmitting and receiving information in the form of light energy using a single light-emitting diode. Signals are received by the diode from a fiber optic light pipe or bundle and are converted into electrical energy. A transmission section in the same circuit converts electrical energy into light energy in the diode to transmit information. The system, therefore, requires only one diode and one optical connector at each end of the light pipe or bundle for two-way communications.
