Re: Need a Comparator that will ignore glitches

Hi All,

I need a comparator that will monitor a voltage level for me and trigger when it stays above the threshold for a set period of time eg 100ms. Any spikes above the threshold which do not exceed this period should be ignored? I can possibly do this with software in the current project but, if I could get a quick HW solution that would be a lot better.

Any suggestions on a simple way to do this in HW?

Um, a resistor and a capacitor RC filter maybe?
