Simulation and modeling of radio-frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) inductors is a difficult task, where several common problems and pitfalls are possible. There are critical issues that must be ...

The quality factor of an inductor is limited by resistive losses in metal traces, and by induced currents in both metal strips and lossy Si substrate. This paper presents a new physical based model ...

Using a previously derived circuit model, coupled inductor designs can be optimized for best performance in multiphase power converters. Any inductor or transformer with multiple windings is a coupled ...
