Problems solved by technology

In low-power applications, if the tail current of the differential input pair is small, this period will be longer, resulting in a longer delay time of the comparator, which is not desirable for most applications

Abstract

The invention provides a comparator. The comparator comprises an input-stage circuit, an output-stage circuit and a clamping circuit, wherein the input-stage circuit comprises a first input end, a second input end and an output end; and when the voltage of the first input end equals to the voltage of the second input end, the voltage at the output end is flipped; the output-stage circuit comprises an input end and an output end, wherein the input end of the output-stage circuit is connected with the output end of the input-stage circuit; when the voltage at the output end of the input-stage circuit is flipped, the voltage at the output end of the output-stage circuit is also flipped; the clamping circuit is connected between the output end of the input-stage circuit and the output end of the output-stage circuit and is used for clamping the lowest value of the voltage of the output end of the input-stage circuit at a first voltage threshold value and clamping the highest value of the voltage of the output end of the input-stage circuit at a second voltage threshold value. By using the comparator, the delay time of the comparator can be shortened, so that the flipping speed of the comparator is improved.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to the field of circuit design, in particular to a comparator. 【Background technique】 [0002] A comparator is a circuit module commonly used in integrated circuits. Its function is to compare the signal difference at the input terminal and output a discrete high or low signal. Please refer to figure 1 As shown, it is a structural block diagram of a comparator in the prior art, and the comparator includes a non-inverting input terminal VIN+, an inverting input terminal VIN- and an output terminal VOUT. Please refer to figure 2 shown, which is figure 1 The ideal transmission curve of the comparator is shown, where the abscissa is VIN+-VIN-, the ordinate is the output signal VOUT, VOH is the high-level signal value of the output signal VOUT, and VOL is the low-level signal of the output signal VOUT value. When the positive phase input voltage VIN+ is greater than the negative phase input voltage VIN-, the comparator output s...
