Hi all,

I have a problem when create a transformer using CoilSys addon in ADS 2017.
My transformer has W = 3um, S= 3um, the outer dimension are 200um, the primary and secondary turn are 3.

I have setup the length unit in ADS in micrometer, and the substrate is defined in micrometer too. However, when I create this transformer and measure its length in layout, the results are 200mm for the outer dimension, and 3mm for the transformer width. I do not know what is wrong with my setup.

I have attached my setup, substrate and the transformer layout screenshots.

Please advise me regarding what I should do to solve this problem
Thank you very much

What is the unit of the library where you created the coils?
Options > Technology > Technology Setup

Maybe the Coilsys artwork code assumes µm and doesn't check the actual library unit.

It is millimeter and when I change it to micrometer, the Coilsys works well.

Thank you very much for your help
