In a noise reduction circuit with a main signal path and an auxiliary signal path having a high-pass filter characteristic, the noise reduction circuit comprises: a voltage-to-current converting circuit having a differential input and output and connecting the auxiliary signal path to the main signal path, PN junction transistors connected to the differential output of the voltage-to-current converting circuit, a paired common-emitter transistor arrangement having one base electrode connected to the PN junction transistors, a capacitance connected to a first differential input of the voltage-to-current converting circuit, a feedback resistor connecting a collector of a first common-emitter transistor pair of the paired common-emitter transistor arrangement to the first differential input of the voltage-to-current converting circuit, a voltage buffer having the collector of the first common-emitter transistor pair of the paired common-emitter transistor arrangement and a voltage dividing resistance connected to a first differential input terminal, and an operational circuit for summing the auxiliary signal and main signal outputs. Accordingly, the circuit can minimize the layout area of an integrated circuit.
