Abstract
In one aspect, an apparatus includes: a low noise amplifier (LNA) to receive and amplify a radio frequency (RF) signal; a mixer coupled to the LNA to downconvert the RF signal to a second frequency signal; a quadrature transimpedance amplifier (TIA) to convert a current of the second frequency signal to a voltage signal, the quadrature TIA having an in-phase (I)-channel having an I-channel DC offset and a quadrature-phase (Q)-channel having a Q-channel DC offset; and a DC offset calibration circuit coupled to the quadrature TIA. The DC offset calibration circuit is configured to calibrate a DC offset of the quadrature TIA. The DC offset calibration circuit may be configured to independently determine an I-channel DC offset setting and independently determine a Q-channel DC offset setting, where the I-channel and Q-channels have a DC offset interdependency.
