    Abstract: An internal voltage offset between a positive input and a negative input of a first operational amplifier is compensated. The negative input and the positive input of the first operational amplifier are coupled at the same voltage level. A comparison current generated at an output of the first operational amplifier has a sign that is representative of a sign of the internal voltage offset. The output of the first operational amplifier is biased to a threshold voltage using a current-to-voltage converter. A control voltage is generated from a sum of the threshold voltage and a voltage conversion of the comparison current. Compensation for the internal voltage offset between the positive and negative inputs of the first operational amplifier is made dependent on the control voltage.
