comparators
Simple comparators have two
drawbacks:
For a very slowly varying input
output switching can be
rather slow.
For a noisy input signal the
output may make several
undesirable transitions
(commutations) as the input
passes through the threshold
voltage value (trigger point)
Solution:
Two threshold values VThH and VThL
Two distinct output values: VOH and VOL
the commutation takes place at VThH only if vO=VOH
the commutation takes place at VThL only if vO=VOL
The threshold values should depend on the output
value The output voltage should be fed back to
the input to contribute to the threshold values:
positive feedback (PF) (to strengthen the effect)
Feeding back one fraction of the output voltage to
the non-inverting input by means of a resistive
divider
