  • Abstract
    Spiral inductors for microwave applications have been integrated on a silicon substrate in Multi Chip Module (MCM) technology. The fabricated inductors exhibit quality factors of up to 23. To the authors knowledge, these are the highest values for inductors on silicon reported so far. A software tool has been developed for fast and accurate design of planar spiral inductors
