Abstract :
This paper describes an analog voltage comparator. It uses a current-mode approach for the storage of one input and reuse of the same transistors for both analog inputs, thus avoiding the problem of transistor mismatch encountered in differential structures. The circuit has been fabricated in a digital 0.9 μm CMOS process and was tested with a power supply of 1.5 V. The measured offset is 1 mV
