This chapter explores the operation of differential amplifiers, discussing their key parameters such as differential mode gain, common mode gain, and their impacts on signal outputs. It emphasizes the significance of managing common mode signals to enhance the purity of the desired differential signal output. Practical implications of designing circuits with minimal unwanted common mode components are also covered.

This chapter explores the operation of differential amplifiers, discussing their key parameters such as differential mode gain, common mode gain, and their impacts on signal outputs. It emphasizes the significance of managing common mode signals to enhance the purity of the desired differential signal output. Practical implications of designing circuits with minimal unwanted common mode components are also covered.
Differential amplifiers amplify the difference between two input signals while rejecting common mode components.
Understanding the role of differential and common mode gains is essential in determining output signal quality.
Adding additional differential amplifiers can help suppress unwanted components and improve overall signal integrity.
The gain of a differential amplifier in response to a differential input signal, typically aimed at amplifying the desired signal.
The gain of a differential amplifier in response to a common input signal present in both inputs, which ideally should be minimized.
A measure of the ability of the amplifier to reject common mode signals, defined as the ratio of differential gain to common mode gain.
