Traditional digital comparator ICs are electronic analogs of mechanical lever scales. Like their mechanical counterparts, they compare two logical signals and produce an output (typically a voltage ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. A colleague asked for the measured jitter number on a single-supply comparator design based on the LM359 IC. 1 He ...

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 ...

Low-power high-speed CMOS comparators and analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) play a pivotal role in modern electronics, from data-intensive computing systems to precision biomedical instrumentation.

The diagrams of two simple balance-bridge devices are given, which allow for the comparing of two inductances with high accuracy. An LED indicator, or high-impedance telephone headphones, are used as ...
