Design a Schmitt trigger using a IC 393 comparator (open-collector output) with thresholds at +1.0 volt and +1.5 volts. Use a 1.0 k pullup resistor to +5 volts, and assume that the 393 is powered from 15 volt supplies.

I think they are asking us to make the following circuit

simulate this circuit – Schematic created using CircuitLab

I have made the circuit but still not understanding how to setup R1,R2,R3,V2 to set the threshold voltage I think V1 will be out input.

  • \$\begingroup\$ Let's see your equations for the voltage at the non-inverting terminal. \$\endgroup\$
