PRODUCTION DATA
The overdrive voltage, VOD, is the amount of input voltage beyond the reference voltage (and not the total input peak-to-peak voltage). The overdrive voltage is 100mV as shown in the Figure 7-1 example. The overdrive voltage can influence the propagation delay (tp). The smaller the overdrive voltage, the longer the propagation delay, particularly when <100mV. If the fastest speeds are desired, apply the highest amount of overdrive possible. Contrary to overdrive voltage, larger underdrive voltage causes tp to increase. This is particulary important in applications where rail-to-rail input swings are present at the comparator inputs. The result can be skewed propagation delay (difference between tpLH and tpHL). As a low power comparator, use of this comparator family is not recommended if variation in propagation delay is critical.
The risetime (tr) and falltime (tf) is the time from the 20% and 80% points of the output waveform.
