Abstract
Embodiments of the present invention are directed to interface devices that provide an interface between a first device and a second device, where the interface device provides electrical isolation between the first device and the second device, and where codec processing is distributed between the first-device side and the second-device side of the interface device. In a preferred embodiment, the second device has a transmission line, the interface device is a modem, and the electrical isolation is provided by one or more digital couplers that transmit sigma-delta signals that are coded and decoded in both the first-device-side and second-device-side circuitries of the modem.
