Differential Mode
The AD7266 can have a total of six differential analog
input pairs.
Differential signals have some benefits over single-ended
signals, including noise immunity based on the device’s
common-mode rejection and improvements in distortion
performance. Figure 23 defines the fully differential analog
input of the AD7266.
The amplitude of the differential signal is the difference
between the signals applied to the V
differential pair (V
simultaneously driven by two signals each of amplitude V
(or 2 × V
of phase. The amplitude of the differential signal is, therefore
(assuming the 0 to V
to-peak (2 × V
The common mode is the average of the two signals
and is, therefore, the voltage on which the two inputs are
centered.
This results in the span of each input being CM ± V

mode range decreases. When driving the inputs with an amplifier,
the actual common-mode range is determined by the amplifier’s
output voltage swing.

typically varies with V

Driving Differential Inputs
Differential operation requires that V
simultaneously driven with two equal signals that are 180° out
of phase. The common mode must be set up externally. The
common-mode range is determined by V
and the particular amplifier used to drive the analog inputs.
Differential modes of operation with either an ac or dc input
provide the best THD performance over a wide frequency
range. Because not all applications have a signal preconditioned
for differential operation, there is often a need to perform
single-ended-to-differential conversion.
