An integrated circuit comprises a first amplifier circuit with a push-pull amplifier configured to be calibrated to a low second order distortion. The integrated circuit further comprises a second amplifier circuit with at least one push-pull amplifier, wherein a size ratio between sizes of the transistors is adjustable by adjusting the size of at least one transistor device. The size ratio can be consecutively adjusted to a plurality of values, and for each value, a first output signal of a push-pull amplifier with an applied test signal and a second output signal of a push-pull amplifier without applied test signal, are determined. The size ratio for which a difference between the push-pull amplifier output signals is closest to zero is determined, and the push-pull amplifier of the first amplifier circuit is calibrated in dependence of the determined size ratio.

A method to drive a digital to analog converter (DAC), the method including setting a reference current for the DAC with a reference current source, a base voltage being responsive to changes in a reference voltage at a reference node coupled with the reference current source; sensing a change in the reference voltage; and adaptively steadying the base voltage based on the change in the reference voltage to maintain proportionality between an output current of the DAC and the reference current.

An inductor-less low noise amplifier (LNA) with high linearity is disclosed. The low noise amplifier includes: an input signal stage receiving an input signal; a first amplifier configured to receive the input signal, generate a first amplification signal by amplifying the received input signal, and output the generated first amplification signal, as a first output signal, to a first output terminal; a second amplifier configured to receive the input signal, generate a second amplification signal by amplifying the received input signal, and output the generated second amplification signal, as a second output signal, to a second output terminal; an output signal stage outputting a superimposition signal obtained by superimposing the first output signal and the second output signal; a first resistor feeding back the superimposition signal to the input signal stage; and a switch connecting/disconnecting between the input signal stage and the output signal stage.
