A simple Schmitt trigger employing single VDTA (Voltage Difference Transconductance Amplifier) and one grounded resistor is proposed. The feature of the proposed Schmitt trigger is that its output hysteresis and amplitude can be independently adjusted. The PSpice simulation results are disclosed, it agrees well with the theoretical anticipation. The total power consumption approximately 443µW at ±1.5V supply voltages.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
