摘要
This letter introduces a new method for reducing the substrate-related losses of integrated spiral inductors for radio frequency (RF) applications. Measurement based equivalent circuit parameters are demonstrated. Using our method the quality factor increased from 5.3 to 6.0 at 3.5 GHz at an 1.8-nH inductor.
