Abstract From the Canadian patent

Application for Patent, of, Ronald W. Russell for, OFFSET ADJUSTMENT CIRCUIT, ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An offset adjustment circuit for a differential amplifier includes a current source connected in series with a resistor for establishing a biasing voltage for a pair of field effect transistors (FET) having variable resistors in their biasing circuits. These FET's are connected to introduce currents respective connections between an input stage and a second stage of the differential amplifier. The difference of the currents supplied by the FET's divided by the transconductance of the input stage of the differential amplifier corresponds to an offset which remains fixed with changes in …
