Abstract

Provided is a transimpedance amplifier which can realize a high-speed and high-quality receiver operation in an optical communication module or a router device having the optical communication module. An offset voltage which is generated in a post amplifier for differentiating and amplifying a single-phase output signal from a pre-amplifier in accordance with single-phase differentiation and conversion is cancelled by detecting a threshold voltage from an output of the pre-amplifier or an output of the post amplifier by a threshold detection circuit and by shifting a level of the threshold voltage corresponding to an offset amount to be compensated.
