    Abstract: A digital-to-analog converter is disclosed. The converter includes a gradient correction module that generates a correction term based on a model of gradient error. The correction term is then applied to the signal path in the digital domain or applied to the output of the digital-to-analog converter in the analog domain. The model used to generate the correction term is based on a vertical gradient error in the array of current source elements, which may be modelled and calibrated using a second-order polynomial. Further, a digital-to-analog converter having a Nyquist DAC and an oversampled DAC is disclosed. When the oversampled DAC is enabled, the resolution of the Nyquist DAC may be increased while slowing the conversion rate.

    Abstract: An electronic device (10) includes a transmitter (12) with a baseband input (13) for a baseband signal, a mixer (18a, 18b) downstream from the baseband input, and a phase-locked loop (PLL) (52) having a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) (54) and a phase detector (58) coupled thereto, the VCO coupled to the mixer. A power amplifier (24) is downstream from the mixer, and generates at least one aggressing signal that would otherwise generate an output pull of the VCO, causing transmit distortion on a transmit signal. A receiver (27) is coupled to the power amplifier and has a sense input configured to receive the transmit signal. A VCO pulling compensation circuit (25) is coupled to the baseband input and is configured to compensate the at least one baseband signal for the transmit distortion based upon the sensed transmit signal.
