A DC offset removal method and apparatus for use with a receiver, such as a direct conversion receiver. The DC offset error can be upconverted to an intermediate frequency where it appears as a DC offset spurious signal. The DC offset spurious signal can be amplified and downconverted back to a DC signal. The DC signal can be used to determine an offset correction value that can be coupled to a signal path to substantially remove the DC offset error. An embodiment is disclosed that allows a single module to be used to remove the static and dynamic DC offset error components. Another embodiment includes separate portions for the removal of static and dynamic offset errors.
