A comparator circuit includes a differential input stage, a second differential stage having a differential output, and an output stage transforming an output signal from the differential output of the second differential stage into an output signal having a logic level. The comparator further includes a common mode measuring stage. The common mode measuring stage includes a differential pair of input transistors and a differential pair of complementary transistors biased by respective current generators, and a current mirror summing the differential output currents of the two complementary transistors pairs into a single output current signal. A switching stage is controlled by the differential output nodes of the second differential stage. A common source node of the switch stage is coupled to the output of the common mode measuring stage and to the differential output nodes of the differential input stage.

Abstract

A comparator circuit includes a differential input stage, a second differential stage having a differential output, and an output stage transforming an output signal from the differential output of the second differential stage into an output signal having a logic level. The comparator further includes a common mode measuring stage. The common mode measuring stage includes a differential pair of input transistors and a differential pair of complementary transistors biased by respective current generators, and a current mirror summing the differential output currents of the two complementary transistors pairs into a single output current signal. A switching stage is controlled by the differential output nodes of the second differential stage. A common source node of the switch stage is coupled to the output of the common mode measuring stage and to the differential output nodes of the differential input stage.
