description The present disclosure relates to a compensation circuit for compensating for an offset voltage that is present in an output signal output by a force sensor. The compensation circuit comprises: voltage divider circuitry, the voltage divider circuitry configured to receive a bias voltage that is also supplied to the force sensor and to output a control voltage derived from the bias voltage, wherein a component mismatch ratio of the voltage divider circuitry is adjustable to correspond to a component mismatch ratio of the force sensor; current generator circuitry configured to receive the control voltage and to generate a compensating current based on the received control voltage; and amplifier circuitry configured to receive the differential signal output by the force sensor and the compensating current and to output a compensated differential output signal in which the offset voltage is at least partially cancelled.
