Abstract
A Schmitt trigger circuit has an input-voltage hysteresis characteristic for reducing noise sensitivity and preventing oscillation. In its input stage there is a multi-emitter transistor, and in its output stage a second transistor. The multi-emitter transistor comprises a first emitter and a second emitter. The first emitter is associated with a switching operation in response to the input voltage applied to the base of the multi-emitter transistor. The second emitter is associated with the operation of drawing charges from the base of the second transistor through the base of the multi-emitter transistor to the ground. The use of the multi-emitter transistor prevents the input current from increasing greatly as the input voltage falls.
