SNOSDL8 November 2024 TLV3511-Q1
ADVANCE INFORMATION
The basic comparator configuration may produce a noisy "chatter" output if the applied differential input voltage is near the comparator's offset voltage. This usually occurs when the input signal is moving very slowly across the switching threshold of the comparator. This problem can be prevented by adding external hysteresis to the comparator.
Since the TLV351x-Q1 only have a minimal amount of internal hysteresis of 2mV, external hysteresis can be applied in the form of a positive feedback loop that adjusts the trip point of the comparator depending on its current output state.
The hysteresis transfer curve is shown below. This curve is a function of three components: VTH, VOS, and VHYST:
