A spur correction system for a transmit chain having an interleaving multiplexer. In some embodiments, the spur correction system includes a spur sense chain, a correction controller, and a Q path corrector. The interleaving multiplexer combines signals from multiple bands in response to a clock signal. The spur sense chain estimates an error that is in phase with the clock signal (an I-phase error) and an error that is a derivative of the clock signal (a Q-phase error). The correction controller compensates for the estimated I-phase error by injecting an I-phase correction signal into the transmit chain. The Q path corrector compensates for the estimated Q-phase error by selectively connecting one or more capacitors within the interleaving multiplexer.
