NOTES:
1. All connections to the board have an accompanying ground connection. Use all ground connections with the evaluation board being the
center of a star ground to avoid ground loops.
2. Connect to DIFF_OUT* signals with either 2 SMA to BNC cables to an oscilloscope (where the subtraction of the 2 signals give the differential
voltage), or connect to the DIFF_OUT* test loops with a twisted pair or differential probe. Connecting in this manner will mitigate noise via
EMI.
3. SH_INx inputs need to be driven to a voltage between VCC and 26 V, even for unused channels. Jumpers 1, 2, 5, and 8 provide a means
to connect unused channels to VCC. If a channel is not in use, the jumper should be switched to the VCC position and the SH_Ox jumper
should be removed to float the SH_Ox pin.
Table 4 below defines all default jumper connections and their purpose.
