Abstract
Abstract A high-speed low-drift operational amplifier is disclosed in which a coefficient circuit having a voltage gain of more than 1 is formed employing a low frequency operational amplifier with a low-drift characteristic to multiply an input voltage by the voltage gain, the coefficient circuit and a low pass filter are connected in cascade to form a drift compensating circuit, and the inverting and non-inverting input terminals of a wide-band operational amplifier are connected to the input and output terminals of the drift compensating circuit, respectively.
