  • Page 26: Floating Grounded Signal Source

    3.2. Floating grounded signal source A floating grounded signal source is not connected in any way to the building ground system but, it has an isolated ground-reference point. Common floating grounded signal sources are transformers, thermocouples, battery equipment, optical isolators, and isolation amplifier output. An instrument or device with isolated output is a floating-ground signal source.
  • Page 27 However, for a floating signal source with large internal resistance, the above connection will lead to the imbalance of differential signal, and the common-mode noise will be coupled to the signal of AI+ while not to AI-, so that the common-mode noise will appear in the measured results. Therefore, for such a signal source, you can use a bias resistor approximately 100 times the internal resistance of the signal source to connect to AI- and AI-GND ports, as shown in Figure 3.2.

  • Page 28: Non-Grounded Reference Single-Ended Mode (Nrse) Connection

    For AC-coupled floating signal sources, a resistor is required to provide DC loops for the positive input of instrument amplifier, AI+, as shown in Figure 3.4. If the AC coupled float signal source has a smaller internal resistance, the AI+ and AI-GND connection resistance values should be generally set as 100kΩ...
