In many board geometries, the coupling between "differential pairs"
approaches zero. You are really dealing with two single-ended signals
that happen to be complements of each other. It is possible to use one
side of such a "differential pair" as a single-ended signal source.
Assuming, for the moment, that you don't care about common-mode noise
rejection at the receiver, and that you can generate a reference voltage
that does not introduce too much duty-cycle distortion in the recovered
signal. It's generally not a good practice, IMO.

I don't know of an actual instance where anyone has done this...
BUT, for "other logical interfaces", one might attach a single ended
sampler or detection circuit off one side IF (and big IF) acceptably
isolated with high impedance resistor or whatever. Of course, SI work
would need to be done to insure the loading would be acceptable to the
diff pair interface.

In such a situation where do you think the diff amplifier will obtain
its=3D20 reference?
