    Custom Inductor design .13u Process

    I understand that, but how do I do that in the opposite direction? This is the flow I would need Cadence layout structure (like the one in the first post) -> Sonnet EM simulation of that structure -> import back layout view with losses and parasitics back into Cadence with other components in...

    Custom Inductor design .13u Process

    If I undestood correctly, all EM simulators can be linked with Cadence only on schematic level? How do I link/draw them in layout with other components in the layout (mosfets, resistors, capacitors...)? I thought I could draw a spiral which would act as an inductor after RLCk extraction. I have...

    Custom Inductor design .13u Process

    Hello. I am trying to design a custom inductor in Cadence Virtuoso for mm-wave applications in TSMC 130nm. I drew a spiral inductor (as seen in the attachment) in metal 8 and metal 7. I've run Quantus QRC and done RLCk extraction. Y parameter measurement yielded L = 137pH (which matches with...

    mm-wave microstrip, cadence

    What about custom inductors in Cadence? I have tried drawing a spiral square line (in metal 9) which would act as an inductor. I've run Quantus QRC RLCK extraction and measured Im{z11}/f to find inductance L and Im{z11}/Re{z11} to find Q. Inductance matches with theory (Bryan's formula). Also in...

    mm-wave microstrip, cadence

    Yes, we currently only have CMOS 90nm tech.

    mm-wave microstrip, cadence

    Hello. I am designing a mm-wave LNA in CMOS 90 nm. I'm having difficulties in modeling microstrip lines, which i need instead of inductors. I have tried QRC RLC extraction and it extracts series R and L from a long straight line (metal 9, w = 5 um, l = 150 um -> L = 110 pH and R = 200 mOhms)...
