Comparators with

non-zero references

• Sometimes called limit detectors

• Op amps may be used

• IC comparators are optimized by

removing the internal compensating

capacitor which increases switching

speed

IC comparators

• Op amps have speed limitations due to

the internal compensation capacitor.

• Comparator ICs are optimized for non-

linear operation so the capacitor is not

needed.

• Comparator ICs often have open-

collector outputs to make interfacing

more flexible.

Comparators with hysteresis

• Noise is any unwanted signal not related

to the input

• Noise can cause false triggering

• Positive feedback creates hysteresis

• Hysteresis prevents false triggers and

speeds up switching

Window comparator

• Called a double-ended limit detector

• Detects when the input voltage is between

two limits

• Uses two comparators with two different

trip points

Integrator

• Useful for converting rectangular pulses

into linear ramps

• Earliest part of exponential charge is

used

• Output ramps are almost perfect

• Used to create time bases for

oscilloscopes

Waveform conversion

• A Schmitt trigger can be used to convert

a sine wave to a rectangular wave

• An integrator can convert a square wave

to a triangular wave

• The duty cycle of a limit detector can be

controlled with an adjuster resistor

Waveform generation

• Oscillators require no external input and

still generate an output signal

• Oscillators work because of positive

feedback

• A relaxation oscillator uses a charging

capacitor

• A triangular waveform is produced by

cascading a relaxation oscillator and an

integrator

Differentiator

• When a square wave drives an RC

differentiator, the output is a series of

narrow positive and negative voltage

spikes

• Using an op amp will improve the

differentiator and provide a low output

impedance

Class D amplifier

• Uses output transistors as switches

• These transistors are alternately driven

into saturation and cutoff by the output

of a comparator

• Provides very high circuit efficiencies

• Popular in portable equipment
