Cropped image from an ADC datasheet showing one side of the part. The INB+/INB- inputs are swapped relative to the INA+/INA- inputs.
Picture of a pickup truck with a disassembled workbench in the bed. The metal supports & frame are blue and the bench top is slightly visible underneath a blanket.
Picture of a PCB layout with parts separated into groups under RF shields. On the right side is all RF, and the left side is the digital interface to a host PCB.
Picture of an incomplete PCB layout. The components are placed within a square RF shield.
