Digital correction of multibit ADAC nonlinearities for error feedback DACs is provided. The integral nonlinearity (INL) error of the multibit ADAC is estimated (on line or off line) by a low-resolution calibration ADC (CADC) and stored in a random-access memory (RAM) table. The INL values are then used to compensate for the ADAC's distortion in the digital domain. When this compensation is combined with mismatch-shaping techniques such as DWA, the resolution requirement for CADC can be relaxed significantly. The implementation of the proposed correction circuit for error-feedback modulators is inherently simple, since the correction only needs a digital summation without any additional digital filtering.
