I've played only with isolated 232 and other isolation devices in medical equipment. However for clk I think will work any photodiode-phototransistor optocoupler like CNY17 or 4N series, depends on max frequency requirements. For data, I'll use two high frequency trigger schmitd inverter like MOC 5007 or H11L series, both have a two input nand gate which could be use for enabling the sense of transmision ( receiving or transmiting ) and run well up to 100kHz.
