Differential Connection Considerations (DIFF Input Mode)

In DIFF input mode, the NI 783

R/784

R/785

x

R measures the difference 

between the positive and negative inputs. DIFF input mode is ideal for 
measuring ground-referenced signals from other devices. When using 
DIFF input mode, the input signal connects to the positive input of the 
instrumentation amplifier and its reference signal, or return, connects to the 
negative input of the instrumentation amplifier.

Use differential input connections for any channel that meets any of the 
following conditions:

The input signal is low level (less than 1 V).

The leads connecting the signal to the NI 783

R/784

R are 

greater than 3 m (10 ft).

The input signal requires a separate ground-reference point or return 
signal.

The signal leads travel through noisy environments.

Differential signal connections reduce noise pickup and increase 
common-mode noise rejection. Differential signal connections also 
allow input signals to float within the common-mode limits of the 
instrumentation amplifier.
