On-chip passive components such as interconnects, inductors and transformers are widely used in CMOS high speed digital, mixed-signal and radio frequency integrated circuits (ICs). Therefore, accurate modeling of circuit behavior, especially for these passive components, is crucial for first-time-right designs. This book focus on modeling and characterization of on-chip interconnects, inductors and transformers. Firstly, a fully scalable and SPICE-compatible interconnects model is established and is accurate over a wideband frequency range up to 110 GHz. Secondly, frequency- and...
