An OTA circuit is disposed between a differential pair composed of NMOS transistors and an NMOS follower transistor that composes an output buffer circuit. The OTA circuit generates a compensation current that is equal to a current that flows in a capacitance formed between the gate and the drain of each of the differential pair transistors and that flows in the reverse direction thereof. The compensation current cancels the current that flows in the capacitance formed between the gate and the drain of each of the differential pair transistors. Thus, a differential amplifier that has a high accuracy and, high gain, and a wide frequency band and that operates at a low power voltage can be accomplished. Using a differential amplifier having a high gain and a wide frequency band, a comparator that operates at high speed and an A/D converter using such a comparator can be accomplished.
