(...) dans un amplificateur opérationnel idéal, la tension de sortie est parfaitement nulle en l'absence de signal à l'entrée. (...) Si la tension de décalage d'entrée n'est pas compensée (...), la tension de sortie n'est pas exactement nulle: il apparaît entre la borne de sortie et la masse une tension (...) qui est la tension de décalage de sortie; (...) 1, record 2, French, - tension%20de%20d%C3%A9calage%20de%20sortie
