    Abstract: A time interleaved digital to analog converters (TIDACs) system having a pre-processing filter to filter a digital signal prior to being converted by a respective digital-to-analog converter (DAC) of the TIDACs system to correct for mismatches between the DACs of the TIDACs system. Calibrating the pre-processing includes converting a discrete waveform at a first DAC to a first analog signals and at a second DAC to a second analog signal and combining the first and second analog signals into a combined signal. An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) converts the combined signal to a digital signal to determine an actual frequency response of the TIDACs system. A desired frequency response of the TIDACs system is received and a pre-processing filter is generated for the first DAC and the second DAC based on the actual frequency response of the TIDACs system and the desired frequency response of the TIDACs system.
