Abstract
In an aspect of the disclosure, a method and an apparatus are provided for calibrating a DAC. The apparatus calibrates a first DAC element, provides a residual current error resulting from the calibration, the residual current error being a difference between a calibrated current source of the first DAC element and a reference current source, stores the residual current error of the calibrated first DAC element in a first memory module using at least first and second storage elements coupled to a differential amplifier, and calibrates a second DAC element using the stored residual current error.
