Abstract
An offset correction circuit containing an integrator is provided between an output of a first DC amplifier and an input of a second DC amplifier, and the integrator corrects not only an offset error caused by an input signal in the first DC amplifier, but also an offset error caused by an input signal in the second DC amplifier. Thus, the effect of the offset error proportional to the integral value of the input signal strength, occurring depending on the temperature stability or power supply voltage variation rate resulting from the input signal in the two DC amplifiers can be canceled.
