Abstract

Abstract An integrator having a first circuit including an integrating capacitor and a feedback resistor, both being connected in parallel to each other in a negative feedback loop of the first circuit, and a second circuit, connected to an output side of the first circuit, for compensating for a leak by the feedback resistor. The first circuit operates as an integrator in high frequencies, and as a current-voltage converter in low frequencies. Further, the second circuit compensates for the leak by the feedback resistor, thereby to produce a value indicative of the result of integrating an input current.
