Abstract
Exemplary techniques for DC offset calibration for complex filters are disclosed. A complex filter is provided having a first calibration path circuit and a second calibration path circuit, each including a first and a second set of switches, respectively. The first set of switches is enabled during calibration mode and the second set of switches is enabled during normal operation mode such that the network characteristics of each calibration path circuit are substantially the same during both modes of operation. In one embodiment, the complex filter is a low pass filter.
