Air core inductors exhibit high Q, maintain a constant inductance value regardless of current, and can be tuned to specific inductance values by manipulating the distance between coil windings. They ...

When current flows through a conductor it becomes an inductor, when there is an inductor there is an electromagnetic field (EM). This can cause a variety of issues during PCB layout if you don’t plan ...

Core loss in inductors can adversely affect system performance. Yet, predicting core loss is a complicated endeavor, especially in complex structures such as coupled inductors. This article examines ...

The kit lets RFCMOS designers create and simulate custom inductor geometries by directly linking Ansoft's HFSS, Ansoft Designer, and Nexxim with UMC's CMOS process parameters. The spiral inductor kit ...
