A comparator is an electronic component that outputs different voltage results at the output by comparing the magnitude of the current or voltage at the two inputs. This article describes the ...

BUDGE ING, Maxim Integrated Products Inc., Sunnyvale, Calif. [email protected] Because digital systems often have only a single-polarity power supply, a common problem becomes translating an ...

(Editor's Note: There are links to the previous parts of this series at the end, below the author's biography.) Determining if one voltage is greater than or less than another voltage is the job for a ...

Voltage comparators began appearing in single-chip microcontrollers (MCUs) in the late 1990s. At the time, the change was viewed as a simple cost reduction. Comparators required less silicon, while ...

028TSMC_COMP_01 is a comparator that compares a reference voltage to an analog input voltage and contains 8 input channels with a programmable thresho ...

An ultra low power voltage comparator that is said to consume one third of current for the same response time compared to competing devices has been announced by STMicroelectronics. The new TS33 ...

Editor’s note: PhD candidate, Seyyed Hossein Pishgar approached me with this paper, which I believe has some unique and creative circuitry and architectures. I have ...
