An apparatus for measuring static phase error in a delay locked loop includes a first test stage and a second test stage. The first test stage receives a reference clock, a chip clock, and a control signal. In parallel with the first test stage, the second test stage receives the reference clock, the chip clock, and a complement of the control signal. Dependent on the control signal, the first test stage outputs a first test signal, and, dependent on the complement of the control signal, the second test stage outputs a second test signal. The first test signal and the second test signal are used to generate a set of static phase error measurements dependent on values of the control signal and the complement of the control signal. By averaging the set of static phase error measurements, a static phase error is measured for the delay locked loop.
