摘要:
A current comparator arrangement has first and second inputs (100, 103), an output (105), and cross-coupled transistors (MP1, MP2) which form a latching circuit. The arrangement also includes current stores (MP3, MP4), the input currents to be compared being fed to the current stores in a selected forward differential order for storage therein during a first portion of a clock period in which the cross-coupled latching circuit is reset. During a second portion of the clock period the input current connections are reversed, thereby reversing their differential order, and the reverse order currents are supplied together with the stored forward order currents to the latching circuit. This cancels common mode and offset currents so that they do not affect the comparison of the input currents.
