Abstract :
A method of equivalent circuit generation by computer is illustrated using a microstrip spiral inductor as an example. The computer program modifies the circuit topology, adding nodes and components as necessary. Results are compared with a model derived from physical considerations and show a great improvement in performance for a small increase in complexity.
