Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a mismatch calibration circuit for a current steering DAC of a SoC baseband chip and a SoC baseband chip. The mismatch calibration circuit includes current mirror compensation circuits, a calibration switching switch module, a calibration resistor, a voltage detection module, and a calibration control module. The resistance of the calibration resistor is 2−1 times the resistance of the load resistor, where N is the number of MSBs. The number of the current mirror compensation circuits is equal to the number of the MSB current mirror branches. The current mirror compensation circuits are connected in parallel with the MSB current mirror branches to form current mirror parallel branches. The present disclosure minimizes mismatch error between the output currents of the current mirror array in the SoC baseband chip of 28 nm process or even a smaller process dimension, thereby improving conversion accuracy of the DAC.
