The input threshold for the latch circuit is 100mV, which can be referenced either to ground or to a wide-ranging positive voltage. There are high and low-going output signals available, and both the supply voltage and clock signal can be taken directly from an associated PWM control chip. With delays in the range of 200 nanoseconds, this latch circuit is ideal for fast reaction sensing to provide overall current limiting, short circuit protection, or transformer saturation control.
