Abstract

Various systems and methods for non-destructive testing (NDT) devices are provided including a tubular housing including a proximal end and a distal end, a head section arranged at the distal end and a bendable articulation section secured to the head section. The NDT also includes a sensor within the head section configured to transmit a data set comprising a first signal to a first output terminal of the sensor and a second signal to a second output terminal of the sensor, wherein the first signal and the second signal are complementary differential signals and a first output signal cable coupled to the first output terminal and extending to a control unit arranged at the proximal end of the tubular housing. The first output signal cable is configured to transmit the first signal to the control unit and the second output terminal is terminated at a ground within the head section.
