Hi all,
1) If the inputs of an Instrumentation Amplifier are left floating while the circuit is powered, can this cause any damage to the IA ? Such a scenario can happen when the inputs are connected to removable terminals (example alligator clips).
NOTE: By floating I mean disconnected and not without reference to ground.
2) If the negative input voltage of a Differential Amplifier is higher than the positive input, can this somehow cause damage to the DA ?
