1 Abstract

High common mode voltages can often be a top concern when designing in a particularly noisy or harsh environment as they can cause irreparable damage to a signal chain or significantly impact a system's accuracy. However, sometimes high common mode voltages are present by design and the overall system needs to be able to accommodate these high voltages for everything to cohesively work together. Whether intentional or not, the components along the signal chain need to be able to withstand and operate effectively in these conditions and TI’s multiplexer portfolio offers many options to handle a myriad of situations where this can be a possibility while also offering the performance needed for any application. In this report, several high common mode voltage applications will be explored which will include analog I/O modules for programmable logic controllers, industrial protocols such as CAN or RS485, and battery cell monitoring.
