Quadrature error correction (QEC) for radio transceivers are provided herein. In certain embodiments, a transceiver includes an in-phase (I) signal path including a first controllable amplifier coupled to a first data converter, and a quadrature-phase (Q) signal path including a second controllable amplifier coupled to a second data converter. The transceiver further includes a QEC circuit operable to correct for a quadrature error between the I signal path and the Q signal path by adjusting a gain of the first controllable amplifier and/or a gain of the second controllable amplifier.
