Single-Ended SMA Inputs

Connect single-ended input signals through the SMA connectors on channels 3 and 4 . These channels also feature headers that can be used to short the inputs to ground using shunt connectors. The input driver circuits are identical to the ones used in the fully differential SMA input circuits on channels 1 and 2 except the negative inputs are grounded as shown in Figure 2-1.
