Differential Inputs
Differential inputs measure the voltage between two distinct input signals. Within a certain 
range - called the common mode range - measurement is almost independent of signal 
source to board ground variations. A 
differential input is also more immune to EMI than a 
single-ended input. Most EMI noise induced in one lead is also induced in the other. The 
input measures only the difference between the two leads, and the EMI common to both is 
ignored. Figure E5 shows the basic differential input 
configuration. 
Figure E5 Differential Input 
The common mode noise and input signal between the External Source and the DS2110 
input must not exceed 13.1V / 30mA or the device will not work properly. Excessive 
voltage/current input will result in damage to the input operational amplifier circuits.
