Maximum and Minimum Common Mode Voltage
If the differential voltage range and desired gain are known, the
maximum and minimum common mode voltage can be determined.
Equation 10 is used to calculate the maximum common mode voltage
knowing the gain and the differential voltage. Equation 11 is used to
calculate the minimum common mode voltage. Remember that when
Input+ or Input- is connected to GND on the SDAIBB the
common mode voltage changes as the differential voltage changes.
