)
The hysteresis width is the voltage difference between the detection voltage and the release voltage (The voltage at point
B − The voltage at point A = VHYS in Figure 15). The existence of the hysteresis width prevents malfunction caused by
noise on input signal.
3. Through-type current
The through-type current refers to the current that flows instantaneously at the time of detection and release of a voltage
detector. The through-type current is large in CMOS output products, small in Nch open-drain output products.
4. Oscillation
In applications where a resistor is connected to the voltage detector input (Figure 20), taking a CMOS active “L” product
for example, the through-type current which is generated when the output goes from “L” to “H” (release) causes a voltage
drop equal to [through-type current] × [input resistance] across the resistor. When the input voltage drops below the
detection voltage (−VDET) as a result, the output voltage goes to low level. In this state, the through-type current stops
and its resultant voltage drop disappears, and the output goes from “L” to “H”. The through-type current is then
generated again, a voltage drop appears, and repeating the process finally induces oscillation.
