    Circuit Comparator
AI Thread Summary
The circuit issue arises when the output remains at 5V regardless of the input conditions, specifically when vN is set below 0.4V. Suggestions include simplifying the circuit by removing unnecessary components like XM8, 9, and 10 to isolate the problem. If the issue persists, increasing the VPbias may help. If these steps do not resolve the problem, further troubleshooting may be necessary. The discussion emphasizes the need for effective solutions in designing a comparator for an ADC circuit.

I have problem with this circuit. Normally when vP>vN (if I set vN>0.4V), output vQ is equal 5v. But when I set vN < 0.4V, output is not true, it is always 5V not only for vP< vN but also vP>vN. I need to design ADC circuit, and that is comparator block. Need some suggestions. Help me

I supply V = 5V, vG = 0V, VPbias = 0V

Start with eliminating all but the most basic things. This means removing XM8, 9 and 10. If it still does not work, try increasing VPbias. If it still does not work - I am currently out of ideas.

I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?
Thread 'How Does Jaguar's 1980s V12 Dual Coil Ignition System Enhance Spark Strength?'
I have come across a dual coil ignition system as used by Jaguar on their V12 in the 1980's. It uses two ignition coils with their primary windings wired in parallel. The primary coil has its secondary winding wired to the distributor and then to the spark plugs as is standard practice. However, the auxiliary coil has it secondary winding output sealed off. The purpose of the system was to provide a stronger spark to the plugs, always a difficult task with the very short dwell time of a...
