摘要:
An offset cancel circuit for an operational amplifier comprises a capacitive element for storing a voltage to be amplified by an operational amplifier section and containing an offset, and for feedback-controlling a voltage value of the operational amplifier section based on the stored voltage, and switching elements for switching operation between the storage of the voltage in the capacitive element and the feedback control based on the value of the voltage stored in the capacitive element. The capacitive element and the switching elements can be used to cancel accurately an offset in the operational amplifier section without increasing the gate areas of transistors in the operational amplifier section.

A differential amplifying circuit 11 includes a current mirror circuit having first and second current ends to which drains of MOS transistors M8 and M9 are respectively connected, and a pair of differential MOS transistors M1 and M2 having gates between which a switch SW1 is connected. A reference potential Vref is applied to the gate of the MOS transistors M9. A switch SW2 is connected between the output VO of an output buffer circuit 12 and the gate of a MOS transistor M1, and a switch SW3 is connected between the output VO and the gate of the MOS transistor M8. During the offset-cancel preparation period, the switches SW1 and SW3 are on and the switch SW2 is off. Next, the switches SW1 to SW3 are turned over, consequently outputting offset-canceled potential VO.

An operational amplifier capable of offset cancel in a shorter period, as well as a line driver capable of shortening one horizontal period and a liquid crystal display device are provided. In the operational amplifier of the invention, a time necessary for feed back control can be shortened than usual by a constitution that an output voltage VO in one horizontal period H1 which is one horizontal period before is defined as a reference voltage in an offset cancel preparatory period HC2, thereby changing the output voltage VO(2) only by the offset voltage VO(2) by the feed back control. In the line driver of the invention, the operational amplifier not used for the output of display data D1 to D6 conducts offset cancel operation and it is successively shifted on every one horizontal period. Since it is no more necessary to incorporate the offset cancel preparatory period in the output period, one horizontal period can be shortened further.
