Title: Comparator/bistable circuit

Abstract: In a comparator/bistable circuit, wherein the bistable circuit is tripped in response to a predetermined relationship between first and second inputs supplied to a comparator circuit, one of the inputs to the comparator circuit is supplied as an input to an adjustable reset circuit which develops the bistable reset level as a percentage function of one of the comparator input signals. This contrasts with the conventional technique of developing the bistable reset level as a feedback function of the output of the bistable circuit.
