Faroze Ahmad . Operational Amplifier based Schmitt Trigger with Digitally Controllable Hysteresis. International Journal of Computer Applications. 171, 2 ( Aug 2017), 31-33. DOI=10.5120/ijca2017914988
A simple and low-cost circuit for controlling hysteresis of Schmitt trigger is proposed in this paper. The hysteresis of the circuit is digitally tuned by employing binary-weighted resistors in place of feedback resistor. The behavior of proposed circuit has been tested experimentally in hardware. The results obtainedare satisfactory and are also presented.
