| Zero Crossing Detector | Schmitt trigger circuit |
|---|---|
![]() |
![]() |
| It has only one reference voltage i.e zero volts. | It has two reference voltage,UTP and LTP. |
| The input voltage is applied to inverting terminal and fixed voltage i.e zero volts to non-inverting terminal and vice versa. | The time varying input voltage is applied to the inverting input and the feedback voltage to the non-inverting input. |
| It is open,loop system. | It is closed loop system. |
| It does not exhibits hysteresis. | Schmitt trigger has hysteresis characteristics. |
| It is used as level detector, phase detector. | It is used as a wave shaping circuit, level detector and pulse-height discriminator. Its main use is to convert any kind of wave intosquare wave. |
| In this transition occur at only one level. | In this transition occur at two level. |
