Considerations in using the ground-referenced single-ended analog configuration are discussed in
the Signal Connections section later in this chapter. Figure 2-28 shows a schematic diagram of
this configuration.
NRSE Analog Input (16 Channels)
NRSE analog input means that all input signals are referenced to the same common mode voltage,
but that this common mode voltage is allowed to float with respect to the analog ground of the
AT-MIO-16D board. This common mode voltage is subsequently subtracted by the input
instrumentation amplifier. This configuration is useful when measuring ground-referenced signal
sources. See the Types of Signal Sources section later in this chapter for more information. With
this input configuration, the AT-MIO-16D can measure 16 different analog input signals. You
select the NRSE analog input configuration by setting jumpers W6 and W9 as follows:
W6 :
A - B
AI SENSE is tied into the negative (-) input of the instrumentation
amplifier.
C - E
Jumper is placed in standby position. Jumper can be discarded.
G - H
Multiplexer outputs are tied together into the positive (+) input of the
instrumentation amplifier.
W9:
B - C
Multiplexer control is configured for 16 input channels.
This configuration is shown in Figure 2-11.

Figure 2-11. NRSE Analog Input Configuration
Considerations in using the NRSE configuration are discussed under the Signal Connections
section later in this chapter. Figure 2-29 shows a schematic diagram of this configuration.
Analog Input Polarity and Range
The AT-MIO-16D offers two analog input polarities–unipolar input and bipolar input. Unipolar
input means that the analog input voltage range is between 0 and V
ref
where V
ref
is some positive
reference voltage. Bipolar input means that the analog input voltage range is between -V
ref
and
+V
ref
. The AT-MIO-16D also has two input ranges–10 V input range and a 20 V input range.
The selection of input polarity and range are combined into three possible configurations as shown
in Table 2-7.
