An apparatus for providing a multi-mode interface between a baseband transmitter and radio frequency (RF) circuitry. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the apparatus includes a digital-to-analog converter, a single-ended-to-differential converter and a voltage-to-current converter. The digital-to-analog converter receives the digital signal from a baseband processor and converts the digital signal into a single-ended voltage signal. The single-ended-to-differential converter receives the single-ended voltage signal and converts it into a pair of differential voltage signals. Further, the voltage-to-current converter receives the pair of differential voltage signals and converts the voltage signal pair into a pair of differential current signals. Thus, the digital signal, the single-ended voltage signal, the differential voltage signal pair and the differential current signal pair together form the multi-mode interface to the RF circuitry.
