When the upper or lower limit is exceeded, the LED lights up. Positive feedback to one of the nulling terminals creates 5 to 20 pV of hysteresis on both amplifiers. This feedback changes the offset voltage of the LT1002 by less than 5 pV. Therefore, the basic accuracy of the comparator is limited only by the low offset voltage of the LT1002.
The described circuit operates as a comparator with hysteresis, utilizing the LT1002 operational amplifier. In this configuration, the comparator monitors input signals against predefined upper and lower thresholds. When the input signal exceeds these thresholds, an LED indicator is activated to provide a visual alert of the condition.
The positive feedback mechanism is crucial for establishing hysteresis, which is the difference between the upper and lower threshold levels. This hysteresis is achieved by feeding a portion of the output back to one of the nulling terminals of the LT1002. The specified range of hysteresis, between 5 to 20 pV, ensures that the comparator does not switch states due to minor fluctuations or noise in the input signal, thus enhancing the stability of the circuit.
The offset voltage of the LT1002 is a critical parameter in this application. The feedback configuration alters the offset voltage by less than 5 pV, which is significantly low and contributes to the overall precision of the comparator. The low offset voltage directly impacts the accuracy of the comparator, ensuring that it can effectively distinguish between the input signal levels without introducing significant error.
In summary, the circuit leverages the properties of the LT1002 operational amplifier to create a reliable comparator with minimal offset voltage and adjustable hysteresis, making it suitable for applications requiring precise signal threshold detection and indication.When the upper or lower limit is exceeded, the LED lights up.
