Abstract

Methods and systems for the adaptive selection of an isolation ground for a differential interface are provided. A system for adaptively selecting an isolation ground for a differential interface includes a first body having a first ground reference. The system additionally includes a second body having a second ground reference. Further, the system includes a differential interface through which the first body communicates electrical signals with the second body. Also, the system includes a common ground connection shared between the first body and second. Moreover, the system includes an adaptive isolation connection that adaptively connects the common ground connection to one of the first ground reference and the second ground reference.
