Abstract :
We present a scalable analytical model for on-chip transformers that is suitable for design optimization and circuit simulation. We also provide simple and accurate expressions for evaluating the self inductance and the mutual coupling coefficient (k). The model agrees very well with measurements for a variety of transformer configurations.
