Abstract

In described examples, a stochastic comparator includes a first comparator that compares an input signal and a primary threshold to generate a first signal. A second comparator compares the input signal and the primary threshold to generate a second signal. A decision block generates a control signal in response to the first signal, the second signal and a PRBS (pseudo random binary sequence) signal. A XOR gate generates a detection signal in response the first signal and the second signal.
