Abstract
A comparator is provided. The comparator includes a voltage generator, a buffer unit and a threshold control loop. The voltage generator has an output terminal for providing a reference voltage according to a constant current. The buffer unit provides an output signal according to a first input signal and a bias signal. The threshold control loop provides the bias signal to the buffer unit according to a second input signal, so as to regulate a transition threshold of the buffer unit to close to the second input signal. The output signal represents a compare result of the first and second input signals. The buffer unit and the threshold control loop are powered by the reference voltage.
