This paper presents a two-channel 12-bit current-steering digital-to-analog converter(DAC) for I and Q signal paths in a wireless transmitter.The proposed DAC has a full-scale output current with an adjusting range of 2 to 10 mA.A gain matching circuit is proposed to reduce gain mismatch between the I and Q channels.The tuning range is±24%of full scale and the minimum resolution is 1/16 LSB.To further improve its dynamic performance, the switch driver and current cell are optimized to minimize glitch energy.The chip has been processed in a standard 0.13μm CMOS technology.Gain mismatch between a 1-channel DAC and a Q-channel DAC is measured to be approximately 0.13%.At 120-MSPS sample rate for 1 MHz sinusoidal signal,the spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) is 75 dB.The total power dissipation is 62 mW and has an active area of 1.08 mm2.

The chip has been processed in a standard 0.13 μm CMOS technology. Local mismatch between a 1-channel DAC and a Q-channel DAC is about 0.13%. At 120-MSPS sample rate for 1 MHz sinusoidal signal, the spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) is 75 dB. The total power dissipation is 62 mW and has an active area of ​​1.08 mm2.
