Abstract: Amplifying circuitry configured such that when a detection circuit detects an abnormal state in which the level of signals input to a main amplifying circuit exceeds a normal range, a control circuit sets the state of integration of signals in the integration circuit to a default state. When the detection circuit detects the abnormal state and then detects that an operating state returns to a normal state in which the level of signals input to the main amplifying circuit is included in the normal range, the control circuit cancels the setting of the default state in the integration circuit.
