In this paper, parametric analysis of miniature on-chip 3-D inductor is presented. The effect of conductor width, spacing between conductors and number of turns of inductor on Quality factor (Q-factor), inductance and Self-resonant frequency (SRF) are studied. Improvement in percentage increase of Q-factor is due to increase in conductor width. It can be found that ~72% of on-chip area reductio...

It is established knowledge that the action potential event of nerves is formed by the combination of a phasic inward Na+ current and a following outward K+ current which increases gradually. These changes in current are commonly referred to as conductance changes of channels for Na+ and K+ with time. On the other hand, electric requirements for action potential generation in phenomena such as ...

Ferroresonance is a nonlinear dynamic phenomenon, between a non-linear inductor and system capacitance. Hereby a study is undertaken on systems comprising of the required parameters, under which the possibility of ferroresonance may arise. For any operating voltage applied to series combination of capacitance and transformer windings at no-load, the critical value of capacitance to cause ferror...

The threshold voltage and current necessary for ventricular defibrillation was measured in dogs using capacitor-discharge and half-sinusoidal pulses of current of various durations. From these quantities the electrical strength required for defibrillation was determined and expressed as energy, peak current, and charge per gram of heart. The optimum current duration depends on the criterion sel...

A new integrated magnetic full wave dc/dc converter1 that provides flexible transformer design by incorporating an independent output inductor winding is introduced. The transformer is implemented on a traditional three-leg magnetic core. The inductor winding can be separately designed to control the output current ripple. The cross-sectional area of the inductor core leg can be reduced dramati...

This paper presents a study of Active inductor based VCOs that helps in increasing the tuning range of the VCO , reduces the chip size and phase noise of the circuit. Study has been done on LC VCOs by replacing the passive inductors with the active one consisting of MOSFET. Design of circuit has been done on Orcade Capture using .18um technology.power consumption of circuit is 1.33mW with tunin...

In this paper, an integrated passive device (IPD) inductor modeling is demonstrated. The IPD technology is a system in package (SiP) solution where passive devices with high quality can be fabricated on a chip and then connect with another circuit chip by using flip-chip micro-bump bonding. For an RF circuit simulation, the IPD inductor model is built and verified from the measurement results. ...

This paper investigates a current mode active inductor. In the proposed active inductor, three current mirrors have been connected to each other to realize the negative feedback. This active conductor has a two layer transistor structure. A 4.257 GHz, 1.2-V power supply non-inductive LC negative resistor oscillator, base on two of the proposed active inductors, is demonstrated. Keywords-active ...

Two types of constitutive equations consisting instantaneous and power type hereditary contributions are proposed in order to model generalized capacitor (inductor). The first one, that expresses charge (magnetic flux) terms voltage (current) memory, proved describe a dissipative electric element, while the second generative element. These models used transient steady state regime analysis seri...
