Abstract
An integrated circuit includes an analog signal output unit which converts a digital output signal into at least one analog output signal, and outputs the at least one analog output signal, an analog signal input unit which converts at least one analog input signal received from an exterior into a digital input signal, a switch circuit which provides at least one signal path through which the at least one analog output signal is supplied from the analog signal output unit to the analog signal input unit as the at least one analog input signal, and an offset adjustment control circuit which supplies an output offset from the analog signal output unit to the analog signal input unit via the at least one signal path so as to detect the digital input signal inclusive of the output offset and an input offset, and cancels offsets of the analog signal output unit and the analog signal input unit in response to the output offset and the input offset obtained from the detected digital input signal.
