Abstract: An operational amplifier 1 comprises transistors Q1 and Q2 forming an input stage, and input resistors R1 and R2 which form a filter together with parasitic capacitors C1 and C2 accompanying the transistors Q1 and Q2. Resistance values R of the resistors R1 and R2 may be set to R=1/(2?·fc·C), where C is the capacitance value of each of the parasitic capacitors C1 and C2, and fc is the target cutoff frequency of the filter. The operational amplifier 1 may also include a power supply resistor R0 which forms a filter together with a parasitic capacitor C0 accompanying a power supply line.

Abstract: A voltage monitoring circuit monitors a magnitude relationship between a monitoring target voltage and a determination voltage and is capable of suppressing the influence of an offset of a reference voltage upon the determination voltage and setting the determination voltage as desired. The voltage monitoring circuit includes: an input terminal, applied with a monitoring target voltage or a divided voltage of the monitoring target voltage; a reference voltage generating circuit, generating a first reference voltage; a linear power circuit, converting the first reference voltage to a second reference voltage; a feedback resistor, generating a divided voltage of the second reference voltage, and negatively feeding back the divided voltage of the second reference voltage to the linear power circuit; and a comparing portion, comparing the second reference voltage with the monitoring target voltage or the divided voltage of the monitoring target voltage applied to the input terminal.
