Abstract

Disclosed is a sensor with compensation circuit for compensating offset by use of a switching circuit. The sensor has two operation modes for generating two output voltages, respectively. Offset is compensated by adding the two output voltages, and magnitude of the offset is calculated by subtracting the two output voltages. A noise threshold is set for checking if the circuit is affected by interference. When the circuit is affected by interference, the adding result of the two output voltages will be larger than the noise threshold, the output data will be hold and not updated, then a reminding signal will be issued to show that the circuit is affected by interference, and the output data flickers on a display unit when the adding result of the two output voltages is larger than the noise threshold for showing the circuit is affected by interference.
