Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a switch, a capacitor, a chopping circuit, and an amplifier. The amplifier includes a non-inverting input terminal, an inverting input terminal, an inverting output terminal, and a non-inverting output terminal. The semiconductor device, with use of the switch and the capacitor, has a function of sampling and holding a first potential and a second potential input in a first period. The chopping circuit is provided on each of the input terminal side and the output terminal side of the amplifier, and the first potential and the second potential are each input to either one of the non-inverting input terminal and the inverting input terminal in a second period. In a third period, the first potential and the second potential are each input to either one of the non-inverting input terminal and the inverting input terminal, which is different from the second period.
