Abstract
An offset calibration method is provided. Two input terminals of an equalizer are switched to a common voltage at a first time point, wherein the equalizer generates a first equalized signal and a second equalized signal according to the common voltage. It is determined whether a first offset voltage is present in the equalizer according to the first and second equalized signals generated from the common voltage. If the first offset voltage is determined to be present in the equalizer, a first compensation voltage is provided to the equalizer.
