6.4 Device Functional Modes

The AMC21C12 is operational when the power supplies VDD1 and VDD2 are applied, as specified in the Recommended Operating Conditions table.

Both comparators on the high-side function together as one window comparator when the voltage on the REF pin is below the VMSEL threshold. If the voltage on the REF pin exceeds the VMSEL threshold, the negative comparator (Cmp0) is disabled and Cmp1 functions as a single positive comparator with increased hysteresis, as described in the Reference Input section.

The device has two output operating modes that are selected based on the LATCH input pin setting: transparent mode and latch mode. These modes affect how the OUT pin responds to the changing input signal conditions. See the Open-Drain Digital Output section for details.
