The demodulator includes an analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) unit for converting a first analog signal corresponding to a difference between the RF signal comprising the offset voltage and an analog reference signal into a first digital signal, and a compensation voltage generation unit for converting the first digital signal into an offset compensation voltage.
