Apr 10, 2015 · The circuit is a comparator and can be remarkably useful more or less as shown. I have used a circuit essentially the same as that in production equipment to meet a …

Apr 12, 2015 · How exactly does a comparator work? Comparators have many uses and its concept is not too hard to grasp. What I don't understand however is how exactly it compares …

Oct 1, 2017 · For fast simulations I sometimes need an ideal comparator. I guess it is not a built-in component. How can it be implemented by ideal sources or VCVS ect.?

Jul 15, 2019 · The circuit shown below is taken from this whole design. I understand the main idea. They want to measure some voltage condition and trigger something else with the …

Dec 5, 2024 · What do we mean by Common Mode Voltage Range in comparators, and how does it help in selection of a comparator for any application?

Jan 21, 2025 · I drew the following circuit using LM358 opamp in order to understand the comparator behavior. I have few questions regarding the circuit below: How should I wire the …

Aug 21, 2014 · The difference is that the comparator output is a logic output that can only be on or off, and the opamp output is analog. An open collector output is simple and flexible but …

May 6, 2025 · Tying the inputs together seems to be a recipe for hammering the output back and forth in the presence of noise. From LordTeddy's answer below, tying the inputs t the negative …

Oct 9, 2015 · A comparator returns a boolean/digital value: 0 if input A is higher than input B, 1 otherwise. A differential op-amp outputs an analogue value: the difference between the inputs, …

The comparator will ultimately be driving an analog switch. My overall project is a modification to an old handheld game system to add "turbo button" functionality (the ability to hold down, say, …
