---|---|---|
This paper presents several experimental and simulation results on silicon integrated inductors. Measurements and 3D electromagnetic simulations highlight the efficiency of different layout techniques and technological choices to improve integrated inductor Q factor. Different kinds of pattern ground shields and different substrate configurations are measured and studied. Electromagnetic phenomena involved in such passive integrated devices are described thanks to the complementary measurement/simulation approach. Pattern ground shields have to be carefully used: this layout solution can degrade the integrated inductor quality depending on substrate characteristics of the integration technology. |
