Also, a prolonged glitch to latch on the S of a latch. The edge detector, causes a short pulse on the clock of the flip flop, why the second glitch circuit has a longer pulse duration and then the state gets latched into the flip flop. In my circuit I am interested in seeing the state of the edge of two signals. The circuit must determine if signal A goes from low to high at the same instant as signal B goes from high to low. I know that there is another way of doing this, I.E. latching previous state of two signals, and comparing the previous with the newly received signals. But this requires more logic and a fast processor. The state of these two signals as a minimun Tw of 0.5us. The pic processor can not handle this time requirement. Even when polling. So I need a circuit that can do the job faster. Unless there is a better way of doing this. Regards, James -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
