presented here can also be applied to differential

Enable/Disable Thresholds
The enable/disable thresholds of the THS4520 are
dependent upon the power supplies, and the
thresholds are always referenced to the lower power
supply rail. The device is enabled or disabled for the
following conditions:

enabled state.
