Example 2
The same EL3012 is now again connected with the two 20 mA sensors, although this time with one low-side
measurement at 5 V and one high-side measurement at 12 V. This results in significant potential differences
U
CM
> 10 V (applicable to EL30xx) between the two channels, which is not permitted.

Example 2, high-side/low-side measurement
To rectify this, GND
int
can in this case be connected externally with an auxiliary potential of 6 V relative to
"0 V". The resulting A/GND
int
will be in the middle, i.e. approx. 0.3 V or 11.6 V.
Example 3
In the EL3xx4 terminals GND
int
is internally connected with the negative power contact. The choice of
potential is therefore limited.
