ABSTRACT:
A three input comparator facilitates the comparison of a signal to the greater of two different reference voltages in a manner which mitigates propagation delay. A first differential pair of transistors facilitates comparison of the two reference voltages to one another, while second and third differential pairs of transistors facilitate comparison of the signal to the higher of the two reference voltages.
