TERMINOLOGY
Differential Voltage
Differential voltage refers to the difference between two node
voltages. For example, the output differential voltage (or equiv-
alently, output differential node voltage) is defined as
where V
−OUT output terminals with respect to a common ground
reference.
The input differential voltage is defined in different ways,
depending upon the selected gain.
For G = 1
where +INA and −INA refer to the voltages at the +INA and
−INA input terminals with respect to a common ground
reference (input terminals +INB and −INB are floating).
For G = 2
where +INB and −INB refer to the voltages at the +INB and
−INB input terminals with respect to a common ground
reference (input terminals +INA and −INA are floating).
For G = 3, input terminals +INA and +INB are connected
together, and input terminals −INA and −INB are connected
together.
where +INAB and −INAB refer to the voltages at the connection
of input terminals +INA and +INB and at the connection of
input terminals −INA and −INB with respect to a common
ground reference.

Common-Mode Voltage
Common-mode voltage refers to the average of two node
voltages with respect to the local ground reference. The output
common-mode voltage is defined as
Output Balance
Output balance is a measure of how close the output differential
signals are to being equal in amplitude and opposite in phase.
Any imbalances in amplitude or phase produce an undesired
common-mode signal at the amplifier output. Output balance
error is defined as the magnitude of the output common-mode
voltage divided by the magnitude of the output differential
mode voltage.
