“…This approach was first proposed by Horng et al in [18] and was extensively improved by Guo and Tan [19]. The physical reasoning that underlies the model is that the distributed spiral inductor can be viewed as a transmission line which can be modeled by a T‐topology lumped element network [21]. Ref.…”

The recent modeling approaches for on-chip spiral inductors are extensively investigated and compared. The key features of the models are detailedly analyzed. By actual implementation of each model's parameter extraction procedure, the pros and cons of equivalent circuit topologies, parameter extraction techniques, and fitting capacity of models are provided, including 1-p, 2-p, and T-models. 1-p models and T-models are proved to be adequate for modeling distributed effect. 2-p models are more convenient in fitting asymmetric inductors. The transfer function of the spiral inductor is employed in the singularity analysis of the models. The proposals are verified by measured the S-parameters of 10 fabricated CMOS spiral inductors up to 40 GHz. V C 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J RF and Microwave CAE 00:000-000, 2012.

“…As the operating frequency increases, the modeling of distributed effects of passive components becomes important [2], and it is necessary to examine the effects of process variations on these distributed passives for successful high-frequency circuit design. While passive nominal models can be obtained from full-wave electromagnetic (EM) simulations, which are computationally intensive, statistical analysis with EM simulations may be a time-prohibitive endeavor.…”

Abstract-In this paper, a portable space mapping technique is presented for efficient statistical modeling of passive components. The proposed technique utilizes the cost-effective model composition of a statistical space mapping, while introducing the portable mapping concept for flexible model development for passive modeling. The portable mapping is a single-developmentmultiple-use versatile wrapper, such that after development it can be conveniently combined with any nominal model to form a set of statistical models of different speed and accuracy. This provides variety in model selection for different design needs. To further reduce modeling cost, i.e., the simulation time required for model data generation, a smart sampling technique is used to achieve better sampling fidelity with smaller sample size. The portable statistical mapping technique is demonstrated through modeling a transmission line and a spiral inductor.
