ABSTRACT:
A comparator circuit operable at a high speed is disclosed. The comparator circuit comprises a differential amplifier having a pair of inputs, and a switch circuit arranged between the pair of inputs, wherein the switch circuit is made conductive state prior to the comparison operation to delete potential difference between the pair of inputs.
