Are Inductors Bad? [review of "Integrated Inductors and Transformers" (Scuderi, A. et al; 2011)]

This book is predominantly about inductors on silicon but does have a chapter regarding general dielectric substrates. The authors compile the latest research and realization techniques to review the problems, solutions, and capability of integrated inductors and transformers. This book has five main parts with chapters devoted to 1) concepts and issues regarding integrated inductors; 2)inductors; 3) transformers; 4) examples; and 5) substrates other than silicon. Integrated Inductors and Transformers is a practical book with just enough theory to clarify the main factors in inductor optimization.
