Decreasing slew rates and efforts to reduce the resistance–capacitance (RC) delays of on-chip interconnect through design and technology have resulted in the growing importance of inductance in analyzing interconnect response for timing and noise analysis. In this paper, we consider a practical approach for extracting approximate inductances of on-chip interconnect. This approach, which we call...

Abstract—This paper presents new semi-analytical expressions to calculate the self-inductance and the electromagnetic force for a ferromagnetic cylinder of finite length placed inside a circular coil of rectangular cross section. The proposed analytical model is based on boundary value problems with Fourier analysis. Laplace’s and Poisson’s equations are solved in each region by using the separ...

A novel ZVZCS isolated dual series-resonant active-clamp dc–dc converter is proposed to obtain high efficiency. The proposed converter employs an active-clamp technique, while a series-resonant scheme controls the output voltage with the complementary pulse width modulation controller. The active-clamp circuit serves to recycle the energy stored in the leakage inductance or the magnetizing ...

A novel magnetic structure for use in LLC resonant converters is proposed this paper. It known as a Path-core type Resonant Inductance Adjustable (PRIA) transformer, which of transformer with adjustable inductance. In the inductance and magnetizing can be designed separately; therefore, it becomes less challenging to realize required frequency. Moreover, not affected by any variation The PRIA f...

In this paper, we propose a new exact closed form mutual inductance equation for on-chip interconnects. We express the mutual inductance between two parallel rectangular conductors as a weighted sum of self-inductances. We do not place any restrictions on the alignment of the two parallel rectangular conductors. Moreover, they could be co-planar or reside on different layers. Most important, de...

The test signal method can be used to measure and model inductance parameters (self and mutual) of a very small interconnect especially in highdensity IC’s by using a test signal (of small known amplitude and frequency) and a D.C. signal along with a Differential circuit. Other measurement techniques such as LCZ and TDR for measuring inductance parameters are faced with limitations of L values ...

Recent experiments implicate spins on the surface of metals as the source of flux and inductance noise in SQUIDs. We present Monte Carlo simulations of 2D and 3D Ising spin glasses that produce magnetization noise S(M) consistent with flux noise. At low frequencies S(M) is a maximum at the critical temperature T(C) in three dimensions, implying that flux noise should be a maximum at T(C). The s...

The inductors made of carbon Nanotube (CNT) have been proposed. Though the fabrication of the proposed inductor is still challenging and has many problems, merits of the proposed inductor are following, (i)The magnetic field induced by the current in CNT is about one thousand times larger than that induced by the current in normal copper wire. (ii)The large magnetic field results in the large i...
