Differential Connections for Ground-Referenced
Signal Sources
Figure 3-2 shows how to connect a ground-referenced signal source to a
channel on the DAQ device configured in DIFF input mode.
Figure 3-2. Differential Input Connections for Ground-Referenced Signals
With this connection type, the instrumentation amplifier rejects both the
common-mode noise in the signal and the ground potential difference
between the signal source and the DAQ device ground, shown as V

in
Figure 3-2.
