An analog comparator is a peripheral that compares two analog voltages and provides a logical output that signals the comparison result.
NOTE
Not all comparators have the option to drive an output pin. See the device-specific data sheet for more information.
The comparator can provide its output to a device pin, acting as a replacement for an analog comparator on the board. In addition, the comparator can signal the application through interrupts or trigger the start of a sample sequence in the ADC. The interrupt generation and ADC triggering logic are separate and independent. This flexibility means, for example, that an interrupt can be generated on a rising edge and the ADC triggered on a falling edge.
Three independent integrated analog comparators support the following functions:
