There is provided an operational amplifier which is operable as well when an operating voltage decreases without creating a range where a circuit would not operate or reducing circuit gain. High-pass filters 102-105 provide output signals therefrom to bias-set input nodes of differential amplifiers Gm1-Gm4 to a potential within a common-mode range in which the respective differential amplifiers Gm1-Gm4 are operable. In this manner, the respective differential amplifiers Gm1-Gm4 can be operated effectively regardless of the possible decrease in a supply voltage, enabling normal amplifying operation. In addition, reduction in gain due to the reduced operational voltage is avoided. Therefore, it is preferably applicable to the application where digital and analog circuits are loaded together on the same IC chip. When a high-pass filter is required at each input side of two- or more-stage differential amplifiers, a phase compensation method utilizing multiple paths is provided for a lower range of a phase margin created at the low frequency side, enabling normal amplitude operation.
