    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.

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...
I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...
I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
