Hi team,
in the datasheet, there have a overdrive voltage minimum requirement, I want to know what's the overdrive voltage.
the datasheet show that:
Overdrive Voltage is the differential voltage produced between the positive and negative inputs of the comparator
over the offset voltage (VIO). To make an accurate comparison the Overdrive Voltage (VOD) should be higher
than the input offset voltage (VIO). Overdrive voltage can also determine the response time of the comparator,
with the response time decreasing with increasing overdrive. Figure 8 and Figure 9 show positive and negative
response times with respect to overdrive voltage.
but I never see this parameter before in the amplifier or comparators, could you give more comments about this one? what's the difference between overdrive voltage and offset voltage?
thank you
