Abstract: An improved offset correction circuit for an image digitizing system having a correlated double sample and hold circuit, a programmable gain amplifier and an analog-to-digital converter. The output of the analog-to-digital converter is provided to a dual offset correction circuit. The dual offset correction circuit provides both first and second correction values as feedback signals. In one embodiment, the first correction value is a coarse correction which is applied prior to amplification by the programmable gain amplifier. The second correction value is a fine correction offset which is applied as feedback after the programmable gain amplifier.
