Abstract :
This paper presents a scalable physical model that can predict the behavior of inductors with different structural parameters over a broad range of frequency (from 0.1 to 10 GHz). Inductor varied as follows: widths from 15 μm to 50 μm, inner and outer radius ratios from 0.1 to 0.7 and number of turns n from 1.5 to 5.5. The model was verified by comparison with the measured results, and a good agreement is achieved in different geometric configurations.
