Abstract: Embodiments herein describe placing a filter network at one of the inputs of the comparator to avoid injecting unequal amounts of kickback noise into the inputs of the comparator. In one embodiment, the filter network matches the impedance seen at the inputs of the comparator. As a result, the amount of kickback noise is essentially equal at the inputs even though the input signals may be at different frequencies. Thus, the kickback noise is essentially cancelled out so that this noise has little to no impact on the output of the comparator.
