    Abstract: A communication semiconductor integrated circuit device (200) includes an amplifier circuit (330) including a plurality of variable-gain amplifiers (PGA1-PGA3) for amplifying a received signal and a plurality of filter circuits (LPF1-LPF3), the amplifiers and the filter circuits being connected to each other in a multi-stage configuration, and a last amplifier (FFGA) having a gain set regardless of a level of a received signal and a filter circuit, the last amplifier and the filter circuit are disposed at the last stage of the amplifier circuit. The amplifier circuit has an amplification factor variable according to a level of a received signal. The communication semiconductor integrated circuit device further includes a plurality of offset correction circuits (OFC1-OFC4) for correcting direct-current offset, corresponding to the variable-gain amplifiers and the last amplifiers, respectively.
