Abstract
A method for providing programmable hysteresis levels includes producing output signals when an input signal crosses respective set points and establishing a hysteresis in the output signals. When a comparator's output signal is "on", the input signal is shifted by a hysteresis differential. The output signal is terminated when the shifted input signal returns to the set point. A programmable hysteresis input is adjusted to set the hysteresis differential to different preset and intermediate hysteresis levels.
