| Abstract |
This paper examined the simulation results after applying not only spiral inductor's 3D EM simulation but also de-embedding technique to reduce the pad's RF effects. When calculating standard deviation with measurement results not only the gain at 0.5GHz~4GHz but also noise figure at 1.8GHz~4GHz, the simulation results includes de-embedded inductor' model improved gain deviation by 0.171 and noise figure deviation by 0.151 than the results from simulation with foundry inductor equivalent circuit models. |
