Part of the common mode amplification of the probe when connected together @8:00 could also be due to the connection point used, if the noise/source frequency is high enough the connections will act like a transmission line and there could be a phase difference over the length between the connections being side by side and not stacked at the same point, that phase difference could produce an effective shift for the differential probe.

I wouldn't call it "phase reversal", that kind of implies change of impedance response (capacitive to inductive). It is just a phase wrap, since the screen is limited to +- 180 degree.

Dave, you should make a note that you’re measuring CMRR from input to output (the smaller, the better), while the formulas you show and what you describe display CMRR as the ratio of differential gain to common mode gain (the larger, the better). I can see an astute viewer being confused. Otherwise, great video.

One-of my first projects in electronics as a design tech was to build a common mode amplifier. For the life of I had no idea what there was to achieve expect build an amplifier that had a gain of 1 or less. The cathode follower ! I used an RCA low noise high frequency 6DS4.

For me, a real test is to solder both inputs together on the board and then measure. Now the output can result from the difference in length and position in the twisted pair of the probe wires. However, it is not worth the effort considering the very high rejection ratio even without that.

Yes, that's a the difference between a system measurment (with probes and test fixtures etc) and a raw product circuit measurement. In this case with attached leads you can argue the leads must be included in the spec.

Why Ch1 changed from 1.75V to 1.80V when changing frequencies? The attenuation in the circuit should be linear, right?

Wouldn't a VNA be a better choice to test CMRR over a frequency sweep? Something like the Bode 100 or similar.

Sure, but most people don't have one. And in the case of the Bode 100 it only has a 1Vrms max output which is kinda limiting.

@@EEVblog CMMR at 50Hz and around there would be easy, using your isolation transformer to provide a 400VAC CMMR source, so the error is at a higher level. Isolation transformer so that you get filtering of the more common noise that exists on the mains waveform these days, though a ferroresonant transformer does do a much better filtering job, though at the expense of having a lot of third harmonic noise, simply due to the non linear attenuation with output voltage as it does it's regulation.

I never got a satisfying answer to what "common mode" noise was. I always saw CM chokes and wondered why they were needed. My understanding is common mode is simply a signal that it applies to all input lines (without prejudice). Further, since lengths of wire are effectively antennas, they can pick up high frequency interference which a choke will filter out due to the magnetic flux, which differential signals will pass through due to the topology of the choke and its windings. This video seems to confirm my understanding. Is there any additional nuance that I'm missing?

Common mode rejection is the main purpose of a differential input its original model was a transformer not an op amp/differential input. A transformer used in signal processing like audio will have a balanced input and it will only transfer the difference in the input. since it will only transfer the difference any radiation or noise imposed on both inputs simultaneously will be rejected. This provides a form of noise cancellation and makes for a low noise clean input signal regardless of shielding or other means of RF /noise rejection.

A transformer can be used as differential probe. Did you ever measure the CMRR of e.g. an Ethernet transformer? Citation: "All the grounds of the inputs are common" That is not completely true. It may only be true if you have no ground loops.
