[0014] The technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be described clearly and completely in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by the person skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the protection scope of the utility model.

[0015] As shown in the figure, equipment A / B is the equipment main body requiring bidirectional data communication, and the MCU is the control body of the embedded system, and the communication between equipment A / B needs to be controlled to keep communication or be cut off, and the on-off control of data is completed by the software of the MCU. Figure 1 The software of the MCU controls the input / output direction state of the bidirectional GPIO, and the output high level of the equipment = V CC When the GPIO is modified to the input high resistance state, the communication of the data equipment A / B keeps unblocked, the communication direction is bidirectional and unrestricted, and the communication rate is unrestricted, and when the communication between A / B needs to be cut off, the MCU commands the GPIO to be modified to the output state, and the output high / low level can be even, at this time, the GPIO changes into a constant voltage source, and the data communication between A / B is interrupted.

[0016] Only the input / output direction of the bidirectional GPIO needs to be continuously modified, or the OC gate or tri-state port is adopted to realize the output / high resistance state conversion, so that the on and off of the bidirectional data communication between the data equipment A / B can be realized, and the on-off control process is very short, the extremely high-speed data on-off control can be realized, and the communication rate is unrestricted.

[0018] ​The switch circuit is suitable for various circuit systems with MCU, and uses the 1-way or n-way GPIO port of the MCU as a control port according to needs, so as to realize on / off control of communication between multiple devices and switching control of communication between multiple devices. Meanwhile, the switch circuit is suitable for occasions with the needs of on / off control, communication isolation control and multi-way communication switching control of digital communication between multiple devices, supports various common communication protocols on the market, such as UART, 485, I2C, SPI, CAN and the like, and basically does not limit the communication protocol itself.

[0019] The output driving capability of the GPIO of the MCU of the switch circuit has certain needs, and the common output capability requirement is 5mA-10mA circuit output and suction capability (or higher), as shown in the following formula: Figure 2 The data communication gating control between devices A and B / C is as follows:

[0020] The GPIO2 outputs a high level, the GPIO1 inputs a high resistance state, communication between A and B is realized, and A and C are isolated.

[0021] The GPIO1 outputs a high level, the GPIO2 inputs a high resistance state, communication between A and C is realized, and A and B are isolated.
