A sensor characteristic adjustment circuit for adjusting the offset and the sensitivity of an output of a semiconductor sensor includes a serial-parallel converter for converting serial data bits into corresponding parallel data bits, a non-volatile memory for storing the parallel data bits, and digital-to-analog converters for converting the digital bits D1 through Dm and Dm+1 through Dn into values corresponding to the offset and the sensitivity supplied to an adder and a voltage-controlled amplifier, respectively. Preferably, gates are inserted between the serial-parallel converter and the non-volatile memory to separate the non-volatile memory from the serial-parallel converter after the parallel data is written into the non-volatile memory.
