Critical Dimensions

edit

A comparator is also a device used in manufacturing to check critical dimensions.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.18.44.136 (talk) 23:25, 27 March 2005‎ (UTC)Reply

Rewrite necessary

edit

This article needs grammatical work....mety— Preceding undated comment added by 66.251.53.12 (talk) 16:57, 23 June 2006‎ (UTC)Reply

Agreed it looks like it has either been directly translated from German, or the author's mother tongue is some Germanic language. I'll get on this when I can. --Daydreamer302000 (talk) 12:29, 16 June 2009 (UTC)Reply
Ok, I've done what I can with the text of the article as it is. --Daydreamer302000 (talk) 09:17, 18 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Optical Comparator

edit

Generally, a manufacturing comparator is properly called a optical comparator, the CNC ruby touch type comparators are called a CMM. B.— Preceding undated comment added by 72.146.1.204 (talk) 06:49, 10 December 2006‎ (UTC)Reply

Types of digital comparators

edit

Digital comparators are two types
1)Identity comparators
2)Magnitude comparators

Identity comparators show only whether two inputs are equal where as Magnitude comparators indicate which input is smaller or larger.

Digital comparators differ in terms of
•Supply voltage
•Number of bits
•Propagation delay
•Operating current
•Operating temperature

Sections removed

edit

I took out two recently added sections with the strangely capitalized "OP Amplifier" in their headings. These seemed to be partly copied (and [1]) from the cited source and partly mangled beyond interpretability; presumably new editor User:Smurfettekla is the same as the anon who added the first one. Hopefully he'll explain his intentions here so we can fix it. Dicklyon (talk) 05:08, 30 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Now as User:Berrinkursun, more uninterpretable stuff from the same book. I'm taking it out. If anyone wants to fix it, feel free. Dicklyon (talk) 02:47, 31 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Op-amp comparators

edit

I'm taking a class on circuits and we're learning about op-amp comparators, including those with resistors that create hysteresis. This topic is not covered here.

Datasheets

edit

I found that the links on this page were dead since they linked to the old National Semiconductor datasheets. I updated them to the datasheet on the Texas Instruments website. Ksumatrob (talk) 05:04, 2 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Multicomparator redirects here (but shouldn't?)

edit

Multicomparator is not mentioned (and shouldn't here? or?). See: 128-bit: "multicomparator". comp.arch (talk) 10:10, 22 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

Phase reversal

edit

Near "using an operational amplifier as a comparator presents several disadvantages":

I think it is missing an item in the list - phase reversal will prevent usage of some operational amplifiers as comparators.

Source for phase reversal, e.g.

"Phase reversal occurs when a common-mode voltage, outside of the specified maximum range, causes the input stage to interact with the second stage causing an action that appears as if the input pins were reversed.".

Comparator that compares a state at different times

edit

Can the article be edited to include the name (if any) for a comparator that compares a state (e.g., a voltage) at different times, rather than, say, comparing instantaneous voltages at two different nodes? 38.67.192.226 (talk) 23:28, 12 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

References "Figures" do not exist on page

edit

In the section "Op-amp voltage comparator", the article references a "Figure 4", "Fig 5." and "the illustration" which either do exist on the page or are not properly labelled. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.6.253.121 (talk) 15:17, 26 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Page appears biased towards AD/LT, TI/BB IMHO underrepresented.31.193.165.228 (talk) 08:43, 9 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

@174.6.253.121 I also notice the second time "Figure 1" is mentioned seems like it is a different "Figure 1" than the first time "Figure 1" is mentioned:

"In practice, this circuit can be improved by incorporating a hysteresis voltage range to reduce its sensitivity to noise. The circuit shown in Figure 1, for example, will provide stable operation even when the Vin signal is somewhat noisy." Em3rgent0rdr (talk) 08:16, 21 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
