Wide-Band Modeling On-Chip Spiral Inductors Using Frequency-Dependent Conformal ADI-FDTD Method

To analyze on-chip spiral inductors efficiently, an alternating direction implicit (ADI) finite difference time-domain (FDTD) method is proposed for general dispersive media. The time-domain recursive-convolution iteration equation can be used to calculate the Debye, cold Plasma, and Lorentz media i...
