Abstract
Provided is a differential amplifier circuit in which an offset voltage is independent from input voltages. A first correction current generation circuit and a second correction current generation circuit are provided and configured to cause the same current as a current flowing through a folded cascode amplifying stage to flow into an output stage. Accordingly, transistors included in the folded cascode amplifying stage and transistors included in the output stage have the same bias condition.
