Over the past few weeks there have been a number of comments about Philips Digital Data Bus system. For those who want to know more about it is detailed in the Microcontroller Handbook that Philips Publish. In the UK its is being used as part of a Home Automation Demonstration being developed by Mullards. This includes ddb along optical fibres, the control of Door cameras tv washing machine lights etc. Last I heard it was being upgraded to use the new DDB chipsets that Philips plan to market. Previously it used development samples and 8048 simulations to drive the bus and protocol. If people are interested I may be able to find out more. Tim Mr T.L.
