I'm not sure there is such a thing as a "common mode amplifier". The common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) of a differential amplifier is very high, and is defined as the ratio of the differential amplification divided by the common mode amplification. The common mode amplification is what you get when both inputs are tied to the same signal. Ideally, this amplification will be zero, but in reality it ends up being some very small amount for well designed amplifiers.

This is a beneficial trait for audio equipment which use a positive, negative, and neutral connection (balanced cables, such as microphones). Noise signals will naturally couple to these cables. The assumption is these noise signals will couple nearly identically to both the positive and negative signal wires, so when applied to the amplifier, this common mode signal will not be amplified, while the desired signal (which is created so that the positive and negative signals are opposites) is amplified.

What is CMRR of differential amplifier?

CMRR stands for Common Mode Rejection Ratio, and it is a measure of how well the amplifier rejects signals that appear on both leads. The idea is that an amplifier should amplify the (Differential Mode) signal, but not any noise (Common Mode) that might appear on the lines, perhaps due to induction from nearby AC power sources. Since induction will show up on both leads, a high CMRR amplifier will have a greater signal to noise ratio overall


What is CMR Ratio?

CMR is Common Mode Rejection, and it is a measure of how well a balanced amplifier rejects a common mode signal, i.e. one that appears on both signal lines, such as one that would be induced by noise. The CMRR, Common Mode Rejection Ratio is the powers of the differential gain over the common mode gain, expressed in decibels.


How you measure the CMRR of the 741C?

To measure the Common-Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR) of the 741C operational amplifier, you apply a common-mode signal to both inputs while ensuring the differential input signal is zero. You then measure the output voltage and calculate the CMRR using the formula: CMRR = 20 log(V_diff/V_cm), where V_diff is the differential output voltage and V_cm is the common-mode output voltage. A high CMRR indicates that the amplifier effectively rejects common-mode signals, which is crucial for accurate amplification in differential signal applications.


What do you mean by CCMR of an amplifier?

Did you mean CMRR? If so, it stands for Common Mode Rejection Ratio, and it is a measure of how well the amplifier rejects signals that appear on both leads. The idea is that an amplifier should amplify the (Differential Mode) signal, but not any noise (Common Mode) that might appear on the lines, perhaps due to induction from nearby AC power sources. Since induction will show up on both leads, a high CMRR amplifier will have a greater signal to noise ratio overall.If you meant CCMR, please say that in the discussion or the answer, and we can split the question. I don't recognize CCMR.

What is common mode output voltage?

I assume you're referring to an amplifier circuit. In a differential amplifier, there are two inputs. The common mode output voltage is the output voltage that will result from the same voltage being applied to both inputs. Typically this is very low, as the common mode rejection ratio (CMRR) is very high in a differential amplifier. This is an ideal characteristic (high CMRR) as it means unwanted noise will not be amplified and potentially squelch out the desired signal; this is why a differential amplifier is used in high quality sound equipment. Three wires are used - a ground, and two signal wires that are opposite each other. Noise will inherently "hop on" the signal wires, but as they are close to one another, it is likely the noise will be nearly the same magnitude and sign on each wire. Since the amplifier CMRR is high, this noise does not propogate through the amplifier, while the original signal is amplified.

What is invertion?

An inverting amplifier is one where the output is an inverted function of the input. The Class A transistor amplifier, also known as common-emitter, is inverting. As you increase the voltage on the base, the output voltage on the collector decreases. The operational amplifier has an inverting and a non-inverting input. In typical bridge mode, the output is inverted with respect to the (inverting) input, and the non-inverting input is used to reject common-mode input signals by moving the virtual ground point as needed.
