Abstract
A directional coupler transformer insensitive to data bus termination failures, includes a ferrite toroid core about which first through fourth windings are wound, the first and second windings being for connection in series with each conductor, respectively, of a data bus for sensing or generating data signal current, the third winding being connected in parallel with the data bus conductors for sensing or generating data signal voltage, and a fourth winding inductively coupled to the other three windings for either coupling data signals traveling in one direction from the data bus to a receiving unit, or coupling data signals from a transmitting unit to the data bus for transmission along the data bus in a given direction.
