WD is a true differential wideband sensor with a very high sensitivity and bandwidth. It has a very good frequency response over the range of 100-900 kHz. Differential sensors differ from their general purpose counterparts by employing two sensing elements with opposite polarization directions. The two signal leads feed into a differential pre-amplifier which eliminates common-mode noise resulting in a lower noise output from the pre-amplifier. Noise improvements to the tune of 2 dB can be achieved using differential sensors over a single ended sensor. This sensor features a rugged steel construction with an integrated twin axial cable exiting on the side.
