Abstract :
Research into modeling, verification and circuit applications of transformers in CMOS is reviewed. Transformer concepts and topologies are followed by discussions of the use of transformers for power and area reduction, bandwidth enhancement, modeling, etc. Finally, conclusions are drawn on future research directions for the use of transformers in CMOS design
