Hi Tony:
Let me be specific about my application. I have two boards. One is 6250 and the other is 5112. I also have a test fixture which needs to measure the UUT current and output waveform. My test fixture has two output. One is the red bind post and the black bind post to 6250 AI+ and AIGND input. The other is to 5112 board using BNC cable. As you know the BNC cable is connected to AIGND 6250 and test fixture ground and my test fixture is floating source. Therefore, there is a ground loop issue. My question is that I don't understand the current from the node under 100ohm is 0.01 micro amp, 0.38 micro amp and 0.033 milli amp. are like this. The second quesion is that I know the ground from BNC and the AIGND ground are different potential, but how come the current will flow from negative voltage to 0V which is the test fixture ground.
I would appreicate your quick response.
