Ground Loop Break (GLB) Circuits

Ground loops can be introduced when different components in audio systems are connected with standard audio cables, and these loops can cause annoying interference. In many cases, the interference can be reduced significantly with a "ground loop break" (GLB) circuit including a low-value resistor and differential amplifiers. This paper explains this approach and how to design a GLB circuit.
