Abstract
The peak comparator circuitry comprises a differential amplifier circuit having an output node to generate a differential amplifier output signal in response to an amplification of a difference of an input signal and a reference signal, and a comparator circuit having an output node to generate a comparator output signal. A feedback path of the peak comparator circuitry is arranged between the output node of the comparator circuit and the output node of the differential amplifier circuit. The proposed peak comparator circuitry allows for a low voltage supply, a low current consumption and a fast output validity.
