Sitting in the PAT lecture yesterday, being bored because I already knew what was being taught and I came up with an possible way of using a couple of logic gates as an analogue comparator.
The circuit works in simulation and should also work in real life but I haven't tested it yet.
Unfortunately I don't have any CD4069 ICs in through hole packages so I can't breadboard it but I'll give it a go with the CD4011 which should work just as well/poorly.
I know this isn't a very good comparator but it might be useful if you have a couple of spare logic gates on an IC and would rather avoid using another comparator IC.
