The charge-discharge cycle is governed by the sampling rate (f

comparator output will become LOW. The logic following the comparators determines
which comparator switches first. If the upper (reference) comparator switches then a pulse
is given on CUP. If the lower (input) comparator switches first then a pulse is given on
