Abstract

In order to reduce the power consumption of users of a bus in the standby mode, the components in the receivers of the bus users which are required to wake up the bus users are clocked via the supply voltage. Two parameters, i.e. period duration and pulse duty factor, determine the response time of the subscriber and also to what extent the power consumption is reduced.
