Abstract: A non-inverting-side first switch is formed in a first area on one of sides of a differential amplifier, meanwhile a non-inverting-side second switch is formed in a second area on the other of sides of the differential amplifier, the non-inverting switches being for resetting a non-inverting input terminal of the differential amplifier. Similarly, An inverting-side first switch is formed in the first area, meanwhile an inverting-side second switch is formed in the second area, the inverting switches being for resetting a non-inverting input terminal of the differential amplifier. Further, a non-inverting-side line connecting the non-inverting-side first switch and the non-inverting input terminal, and an inverting-side line connecting the inverting-side first switch and the inverting-side second switch are provided next to each other. A signal line crossing one of the lines is provided so as to cross the other of the lines.

Abstract: In the hold phase, two negative feedback circuits constituted by the negative feedback capacitors 6p and 6m and two positive feedback circuits constituted by positive feedback capacitors are provided between an input terminal and an output terminal of an operational amplifier. Here, in a sampling phase before a hold phase, charges according an input signal V1p is stored in each of the capacitors, and charges according to an input signal V1p are stored in each of the capacitors. As a result, a gain of the switched capacitor amplifier circuit is derived from (Ca+C)/(Ca−Cx) wherein Ca indicates an electrostatic capacitance of the negative feedback capacitors, and Cx indicates an electrostatic capacitance of the positive feedback capacitors, and thus the gain can be increased without significantly increasing an electrostatic capacitance ratio.

Abstract: A sample-and-hold amplifier circuit has a switch, provided between an operational amplifier stage and an inverting amplifier stage, for connecting or cutting off the connection of the operational amplifier stage and the inverting amplifier stage. During the first operation phase (&phgr;1), the first and second switches are switched to the &phgr;1 side, the third switch is conductive, and the switch for connecting or cutting off the connection is nonconductive. Thus, sampling can be carried out so that first and second capacitors are charged by predetermined electrical charges. During the second operation phase (&phgr;2), the first and second switches are switched to the (&phgr;2 side, the third switch is nonconductive, and the switch for connecting or cutting off the connection is conductive.
