Electronic circuit with two signal transmission lines of matching impedance
In electrical engineering, a balanced circuit is electronic circuitry for use with a balanced line, or the balanced line itself. Balanced lines are a common method of transmitting many types of electrical signals between two points on two wires. In a balanced line, the two signal lines are of a matched impedance to help ensure that interference, induced in the line, is common-mode and can be removed at the receiving end by circuitry with good common-mode rejection. To maintain the balance, circuit blocks which interface to the line or are connected in the line must also be balanced.
Balanced lines work because the interfering noise from the surrounding environment induces equal noise voltages into both wires. By measuring the voltage difference between the two wires at the receiving end, the original signal is recovered while the noise is rejected. Any inequality in the noise induced in each wire is an imbalance and will result in the noise not being fully rejected. One requirement for balance is that both wires are an equal distance from the noise source. This is often achieved by placing the wires as close together as possible and twisting them together. Another requirement is that the impedance to ground (or to whichever reference point is being used by the difference detector) is the same for both conductors at all points along the length of the line. If one wire has a higher impedance to ground it will tend to have a higher noise induced, destroying the balance.
