A method and system of compensating for phase error. A phase error compensation circuit is configured to generate a phase-corrected quadrature Q output signal and a corresponding phase-corrected in-phase I output signal, the circuit includes a first transconductance circuit configured to convert a voltage signal related to an I input voltage signal to an I current signal. A second transconductance circuit is configured to convert a voltage signal related to a Q input signal to a Q current signal. A first multiplier circuit is configured to multiply the Q current signal times a Q scaling constant. A second multiplier circuit is configured to multiply the I current signal times an I scaling constant. An I summer sums the I current signal with the scaled Q signal. A Q summer sums the Q current signal with the scaled I signal.
