Common-Mode Rejection of Input Signal

The common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) is the ability to suppress unwanted common-mode signals superimposed to the differential signal. A CMRR test is performed by comparing the output codes for a 1-V differential voltage with and without a VCM signal applied. The following table shows that with no VCM signal, the system had an output code deviation of –1 code. Comparatively, the design showed a deviation of –4 to +3 codes with –11.5-V and +11.5-V VCM, resulting in a measured VCM rejection of > 81 dB.
