    This means that the signal source is connected to a common ground point with respect to the U2300A series DAQ (assume the host PC which is connected with DAQ is in the same power ground).
  • Page 22: Input Configurations

    – Referenced Single-Ended (RSE) mode In referenced single-ended mode, all the input signals are connected to the ground provided by the U2300A series DAQ and suitable for connections with floating signal sources. The following figure illustrates the RSE mode. Figure 2-1...
  • Page 23: Figure 2-2 Ground-Referenced Sources And Nrse Input

    Hence, any potential difference of the common mode ground between signal ground and the signal ground on DAQ board will be rejected by the instrumentation amplifier. Figure 2-2 Ground-referenced sources and NRSE input connections Keysight U2300A Series Service Guide...
  • Page 24: Differential Input Mode

    The differential input mode provides two inputs that respond to the difference of the signal voltage. The analog input of the U2300A series DAQ has its own reference ground or signal return path. The differential mode can be used for the common-mode noise rejection if the signal source is ground-referenced.
