Abstract
Rectangular spiral inductors with Q´s as high as 12 have been built in a high-speed complementary bipolar process and characterized for use in wireless applications. An accurate broadband model has been developed for the inductors, and a test filter and mixer have been built to verify the performance of the inductors and the accuracy of the model
