ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 26 -- United States Patent no. 12,261,578, issued on March 25, was assigned to STMicroelectronics International N.V. (Geneva).

"Devices and methods for offset cancellation" was invented by Riju Biswas (Noida, India).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "An offset-cancellation circuit having a first amplification stage with a gain of the first amplification stage and configured to receive an offset voltage of a first amplifier. A storage element is configured to be coupled to and decoupled from the first amplification stage and configured to store a potential difference output by the first amplification stage. The potential difference is determined by the offset voltage of the f...
