An information transmission controller for monitor television camera capable of communication in a full duplex or half duplex manner between a plurality of multidrop-connected information transmission controllers is disclosed in which control data and a sync signal are superimposed onto a control line (21) by a constant current driver circuit (1), thereby preventing the reflection of a signal and making the construction of the controller simple. Each information transmission controller is constructed by one data separate circuit (3) for extracting control data on a control line, one sync signal separate circuit (10) for extracting only a sync signal on the control line, one data control circuit (5) for adding new data in synchronism with a signal extracted by the sync signal separate circuit (10) and on the basis of the data extracted by the data separate circuit (3), one pulse width modulator (7) for pulse width modulating an output of the data control circuit (5), and one constant current driver circuit (1) for driving the pulse width modulated signal from the pulse width modulator (7) by a constant current source.
