Abstract :
The paper introduces an active inductor implementation suitable for microwave and millimeter wave applications. The proposed circuit exhibits a quality factor in excess to 500 at 25 GHz with a current consumption of 1.2 mA @ 1.5V bias. A Monolithic implementation in PHEMT technology is reported and discussed.
