Abstract:
A ping pong comparator voltage monitoring circuit which includes first and second comparators having inputs connected to a voltage Vin to be monitored, and second inputs connected to first and second nodes, respectively. A multiplexer alternately couples the first and second comparator outputs to an output in response to a periodic control signal. A ground-referenced voltage Vref1 is provided at a third node and a voltage Vref2 referenced to Vref1 is at a fourth node. A hysteresis hyst1 is switchably connected between the third and first nodes, and a hysteresis hyst2 is switchably connected between the fourth and second nodes. Hyst1 and hyst2 are switched in when the mux output toggles due to a rising Vin, and are switched out when the mux output toggles due to a falling Vin.
