single-ended input

The unit accepts both differential and single-ended inputs with a maximum count rate of 1MHz.

Rear-panel controls for balanced or single-ended input, Bridge/Stereo Mode.

Isolation transformers may be used to convert from balanced lines to single-ended inputs, and also to isolate the cable shield from the equipment safety ground.

During the transition, the core of the circuit - the emitter-coupled pair (T1 and T3) - acts as a differential amplifier with single-ended input.

ECL uses an overdriven BJT differential amplifier with single-ended input and limited emitter current to avoid the saturated (fully on) region of operation and its slow turn-off behavior.

For example, the three-lane chipset has 21 single-ended inputs and outputs for the user interface, and the four-lane chipset has 28 single-ended inputs and outputs.
