Abstract
An improved isolation circuit for protecting data communication equipment from high voltages on a transmission line has two mixers. The first dual balanced mixer (DBMX) translates a data signal on the transmission line to a high frequency and is coupled with an isolation circuit to the second DBMX. The second DBMX then translates the output of the first DBMX to an isolated data signal with the same frequency content as the original data signal.
