Abstract
A Schmitt trigger circuit is described which overcomes some of the stability problems associated with the wide hysteresis loop of more conventional arrangements. A low level of hysteresis is achieved, thereby reducing the threshold voltage while also affording increased stability during switching. Operational risetimes of 200 ps are demonstrated.
