SSM2141
MAINTAINING COMMON-MODE REJECTION
In order to achieve the full common-mode rejection capability
of the SSM2141, the source impedance must be carefully
controlled. Slight imbalances of the source resistance will result
in a degradation of DC CMR—even a 5
Ω
imbalance will
degrade CMR by 20 dB. Also, the matching of the reactive
source impedance must be matched in order to preserve the
CMRR over frequency.
