A single-ended measurement measures the difference in voltage between the
terminal configured for single-ended input and the reference ground. The
measurement sequence is illustrated in figure
Simplified Voltage Measurement

(p. 306).
While differential measurements are usually preferred, a single-
ended measurement is often adequate in applications wherein some types of noise
are not a problem and care is taken to avoid problems caused by ground currents.
Examples of applications wherein a single-ended measurement may be preferred
include:
•
Not enough differential terminals available. Differential measurements use
twice as many
H
/
L
] terminals as do single-ended measurements.
•
Rapid sampling is required. Single-ended measurement time is about half
that of differential measurement time.
•
Sensor is not designed for differential measurements. Many Campbell
Scientific sensors are not designed for differential measurement, but the draw
backs of a single-ended measurement are usually mitigated by large
programmed excitation and/or sensor output voltages.
