Differential Inputs
The PCIE-1802 supports two terminal configurations for analog input: differential and
pseudo-differential. The term pseudo-differential refers to the 50
Ω
resistance
between the outer connector shell and chassis ground.
If the signal source is floating, use the pseudo-differential configuration. The pseudo-
differential configuration provides a ground reference between the floating source
and the PCIE-1802 by connecting a 50
Ω
resistor from the negative input to ground.
Without this, the floating source can drift outside of the input common-mode range of
the PCIE-1802.
If the signal source is grounded or ground referenced, both the pseudo-differential
and differential input configurations are acceptable. However, the differential input
configuration is preferred, since using the pseudo-differential input configuration on a
grounded signal source creates more than one ground-reference point. This condi-
tion may allow ground loop current, which can introduce errors or noise into the mea-
surement. The 50
Ω
resistor between the negative input and ground is usually
sufficient to reduce these errors to negligible levels, but results can vary depending
on your system setup.
Configure the channels based on the signal source reference or DUT configuration.
Refer to Table 1-1 to determine how to configure the channel.
The default configuration of the PCIE-1802 is differential.
