Differential input mode
The differential input mode provides two inputs that respond to the difference signal between them. If the signal source has one side connected to local ground, the differential mode can be used for reducing ground loop. Figure 3.5 shows the connection of the differential input mode. However, even if the signal source is local grounded, the single- ended still can be used when the Vcm (Common Mode Voltage) is very small and the effect of ground loop can be negated.
