Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure provide an amplifier system and a method for dynamically cancelling an offset voltage. The amplifier system includes a chopper amplifier system that includes a differential amplifier with an offset calibration circuit. The chopper amplifier system is configured to generate an output signal including voltage variations indicating an offset voltage of the differential amplifier. The amplifier system also includes a feedback circuit configured to determine a polarity of the offset voltage of the differential amplifier based on the output signal, and to transmit a control signal to the offset calibration circuit to reduce the offset voltage of the differential amplifier.
