Comparator Output
By monitoring the comparator output during the fixed
signal integrate time, the input signal polarity can be deter-
mined by the microprocessor controlling the conversion.
The comparator output is HIGH for positive signals and LOW
for negative signals during the signal-integrate phase (see
timing diagram).
During the reference deintegrate phase, the comparator
output will make a HIGH-to-LOW transition as the integrator
output ramp crosses zero. The transition is used to signal the
processor that the conversion is complete.
The internal comparator delay is 2ยตsec, typically. Figure
2 5 shows the comparator output for large positive and nega-
tive signal inputs. For signal inputs at or near zero volts,
however, the integrator swing is very small. If common-
mode noise is present, the comparator can switch several
times during the beginning of the signal-integrate period. To
ensure that the polarity reading is correct, the comparator
output should be read and stored at the end of the signal
integrate phase.
3 The comparator output is undefined during the Auto-
Zero Phase and is used to time the Integrator Output Zero
phase. (See Integrator Output Zero Phase of System Timing
section).
