AMC1306M25: The issue of chip usage

Part Number: AMC1306M25

Tool/software:

I want to know the difference between AINN and AINP. I understand that they are differential signals. I'm not sure if AINP can be short-circuited with AGND.

If it's not possible, why not and what problems will occur with short-circuiting?

Could you recommend a similar chip for non-differential signal applications?

  • Hi Tony, 

    Either AINN or AINP should be typically shorted to AGND such that the common-mode input voltage range remains within specification. 

    This then becomes a psuedo differential input that can measure a single-ended signal.
