Abstract

In this paper, a new circuit model for on-chip spiral inductors is presented. The model fits very well with the measured data in 0.13 mum CMOS technology. Since the proposed model consists of frequency-independent lumped elements, it can be easily implemented in simulation program with integrated circuit emphasis (SPICE)-compatible simulators. The new model accurately captures series resistance and inductance over a wide frequency range, even beyond the self-resonant frequency.
