Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided for calibrating first and second digital-to-analog converters (DACs). The apparatus has a normal input and a test input. A first correction circuit selectively modifies either the normal input or the test input by a first gain correction value and a first offset correction value to produce a first corrected value. A second correction circuit selectively modifies either the normal input or the test input by a second gain correction value and a second offset correction value to produce a second corrected value. A first DAC operates on the first corrected output and has a first analog output. A second DAC operates on the second corrected output and has a second analog output. A calibration control circuit has first and second inputs coupled to the first and second analog outputs, respectively, and generates the first and second gain correction values and the first and second offset correction values as a function of the first and second analog outputs.
