Understanding Differential Data Acquisition
Zróżnicowanie data develoption measures the voltage difference between two input terminals - typically labeled HI and LO (or + and −). Neither terminal is tied tio ground inside the DAQ device, allowing thee measurement to reject noise that appears equally on both lines (commun- mode noise).

HowDifferential Mierzenie Work
A difference input use two conductors per signal: one carrises the positiva (non-inverting) signal, and thee teir carrives the negative (inverting) signal.

Single- ended inputs have no rejection of common-mode noise - any noise that appears on thee ground or thee signal line directly adds to thee measurement. In contract, diftival inputs can accee CMRR s from 60 dB (basic) to 120 dB (with instrumentation amplifier).
