  • Abstract
    Vertical spiral components, including spiral transformer, spiral transmission transformer, and combined spiral inductor and distributed capacitance, are modeled by finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method in this paper. Vertical structures of coplanar spiral components are being developed to reduce the chip size of MMICS. The FDTD modeling are presented and discussed.
