Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided. The apparatus may be a capacitive element for adjusting a net capacitance of a circuit. The apparatus may be configured to be coupled to the circuit. The apparatus may be configured to adjust the net capacitance of the circuit to decouple common mode and differential loop bandwidth adjustment of the circuit. The capacitive element may include a pair of cross-coupled capacitors configured to be coupled to differential nodes of the circuit, and a pair of negative gain buffers coupled to respective capacitors.
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.
