| 1. A method for communicating simultaneously on a two-wire line a clock signal constituted by pulses with given frequency
of repetition and a data signal that is able to assume two logic levels, the method comprising:
applying to said two-wire line a bipolar differential pulse signal with frequency of repetition of the pulses equal to the
frequency of repetition of the pulses of said clock signal; and
varying the sign of the pulses of the bipolar differential pulse signal applied to said two-wire line according to the logic
level of said data signal.
