Definitions of Terms
V OS Input Offset Voltage: Voltage applied
between the two input terminals to obtain
TTL-logic threshold (+1.4V) at the
output. t pd+ (D) Latch Disable-to-Output High Delay:
The propagation delay measured from
the latch-signal crossing the TTL
threshold in a low-to-high transition to
the point of the output crossing TTL
threshold in a low-to-high transition.
V IN Input Voltage Pulse Amplitude: Usually
set to 100mV for comparator
specifications. t pd- (D) Latch Disable-to-Output Low Delay:
The propagation delay measured from
the latch-signal crossing the TTL
threshold in a low-to-high transition to
the point of the output crossing TTL
threshold in a high-to-low transition.
V OD Input Voltage Overdrive: Usually set to
5mV and in opposite polarity to V
IN for
comparator specifications.
ts Minimum Setup Time: The minimum
time before the negative transition of the
latch signal that an input signal change
must be present in order to be acquired
and held at the outputs.
t pd+ Input-to-Output High Delay: The
propagation delay measured from the
time the input signal crosses the input
offset voltage to the TTL-logic threshold
of an output low-to-high transition th Minimum Hold Time: The minimum time
after the negative transition of the latch
signal that an input signal must remain
unchanged in order to be acquired and
held at the output.
t pd- Input-to-Output Low Delay: The
propagation delay measured from the
time the input signal crosses the input
offset voltage to the TTL-logic threshold
of an output high-to-low transition. tpw (D) Minimum Latch-Disable Pulse Width:
The minimum time that the latch signal
must remain high in order to acquire and
hold an input-signal change.
