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 ...

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 ...

The bistable load switch is made on two comparators. The load is switched on and off sequentially by applying a voltage of two different levels to the input of the device. Earlier in [1], a new class ...

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 ...

This circuit is a very simple voltage monitoring device for +5V VCC supply lines. It can be used to monitor the power supply of a microcontroller (uC) by indicating when the supply level raises above ...
