Vr Slow Compensation capacitor lowers slew-rate (should disconnect capacitor for higher speed) Inaccurate Offset of input stage might be 2mV - 10mV Limited input range Common-mode input range poor not good if V r is near one of power supplies (flash A/D converters)

Latched Comparators
Preamp used to improve resolution and reduce kickback Kickback result of charge transfer to inputs when going from track to latch mode Use preamp and match input impedances Preamp and track both have gain Positive feedback regenerates signal to logic levels Hysteresis effects reduced by setting internal nodes to known values each switching interval Known values likely setting latch to its trip point
