Compact form of expressions for inductance calculation of meander inductors

Abstract

The quality of modeling and analyzing of RF IC with planar inductors extremely depends on accuracy of expression for inductance. In this paper efficient methods for total inductance calculation of meander inductor are given. By using proposed algorithm, we are able to predict correctly all inductance variations introduced by varying geometry parameters. Our. developed program gives possibility for fast and accurate inductance calculation for meander inductor, while new expression in monomial form is useful for optimization of this inductor. The results validations, given by proposed software tool are conformed by comparison with measured data from literature.
