6.3.3 Differential Amplifier Explanation

The LM48580 features a fully differential amplifier. A differential amplifier amplifies the difference between the two input signals. A major benefit of the fully differential amplifier is the improved common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) over single ended input amplifiers. The increased CMRR of the differential amplifier reduces sensitivity to ground offset related noise injection, especially important in noisy systems.
