Abstract:
An offset-cancellation circuit having a first amplification stage with a gain of the first amplification stage and configured to receive an offset voltage of a first amplifier. A storage element is configured to be coupled to and decoupled from the first amplification stage and configured to store a potential difference output by the first amplification stage. The potential difference is determined by the offset voltage of the first amplifier and the gain of the first amplification stage. A second amplification stage is coupled to the storage element and configured to receive the potential difference from the storage element when the storage element is decoupled from the first amplification stage and configured to deliver an offset-cancellation current. The offset-cancellation current is determined by the potential difference and a gain of the second amplification stage.
