Configurable logic gates’ Schmitt inputs make versatile monostables -
5/25/06 EDN Design Ideas....You can assemble a pulse-generation
circuit from a simple Schmitt-input AND gate plus a resistor-capacitor
timing network. However, if you need a logic function that’s not a standard
catalog item, you need a Schmitt-input gate or inverter....PDF has several

DPP adds versatility to VFC - 14-Nov-02 Issue of EDN The basic VFC
(voltage-to-frequency converter] in Figure 1 comprises an integrator (IC1] and a
Schmitt-trigger circuit (IC2]. The integrator converts the dc input voltage, VIN , to
a linear voltage ramp, and the Schmitt trigger sets the limits of the integrator's
output voltage. Feedback around both circuits provides the condition for
oscillation.... [Design Idea by Chuck Wojslaw, Catalyst Semiconductor, Sunnyvale, CA] |

| MOS transistors form current-mode Schmitt trigger -
12/03/98 EDN-Design Ideas....Schmitt triggers are useful in both analog and digital
circuits for reducing sensitivity to noise and disturbances. Current-mode Schmitt
triggers are particularly useful in photodetectors, bar-code readers, and optical
remote controls. The resistorless current-mode SchmittSchmitt triggers are useful in
both analog and digital circuits for reducing sensitivity to noise and disturbances.

Resistor network extends Schmitt trigger's reach - 13-Sep-01 Issue of EDN
The circuit in Figure 1 shows a familiar technique for converting a low-level analog
signal to digital form. Resistors R1 and R2 set the quiescent dc level at the Schmitt
inverter's input to a value roughly equal to the midpoint of the hysteresis band.
Capacitor C1 removes dc content from VIN, such that the Schmitt trigger's input
signal, VI, centers itself on the midhysteresis level.... [Design Idea by Anthony
Smith, Scitech, Biddenham, UK] |

Schmidt trigger - In Dutch. Ik kan me voorstellen dat de lezer zijn
wenkbrauwen fronst, een Schmitt trigger met transistoren? Die maak je toch met een
OpAmp of met daarvoor speciale ontwikkelde IC's. Soms heb je toch het probleem dat je
over een lage voedingsspanning beschikt,....(added 05/08) |

Schmitt Trigger - Can also be called AN INVERTER or a SCHMITT INVERTER.
We have animated the circuit to show how the output goes high or low according to the
input level. The animation shows a wide gap between the input levels…. |

Schmitt Trigger Circuit - This circuit uses a single op-amp and the output
is triggered by two different voltage levels. [Circuit Design by Andy Collison] |

Simple changes improve Schmitt trigger - 05/13/99 EDN-Design Ideas....The
classical Schmitt trigger circuit that you’ll find in textbooks provides some noise

Transistor Schmitt Trigger Oscillator - The Schmitt Trigger oscillator below
employs 3 transistors, 6 resistors and a capacitor to generate a square waveform.
Pulse waveforms can be generated with an additional diode and resistor (R6). Q1 and Q2
are connected with a common emitter resistor (R1) so that the conduction of one
transistor causes the other to turn off. Q3 is controlled..(added 6/06) |
