ABSTRACT:
An error signal, i.e., offset, noise or drift, is sampled in an input capacitor at an error sampling interval and held during the amplification interval. During the amplification interval, the signal is amplified offset-free. The circuit has two paths which operate alternately in such a way that the signal path is never interrupted, except for very brief intervals. Each of the two paths includes an operational amplifier, and the offset voltages of the two operational amplifiers are cancelled out automatically.
