Abstract: For high-speed circuits, on-chip inductance can no longer be ignored. This paper deals with inductance in the presence of multi-layered meshes used for on-chip power supplies. We have shown ways of designing power/ground (p/g) mesh that reduce inductance. Accurate 3-dimensional inductance extraction problem is intractable for large chips. We have demonstrated the feasibility of using ...

The nonlinearity exhibited by the kinetic inductance of a superconducting stripline couples stripline resonator modes together in a manner suitable for quantum nondemolition measurement of the number of photons in a given resonator mode. Quantum nondemolition measurement is accomplished by coherently driving another resonator mode, referred to as the detector mode, and measuring its response. W...

A loosely contactless transformer with a large air gap has small magnetizing inductance and large leakage inductance comparing with a closely conventional transformer. This paper focus on analysis, design and measurement results of the loosely winding contactless transformer using resonant converter. Finally, the experimental set up is built to transfer power of 300 W over the different gap var...

Based on product related scenarios, the impact of on-chip inductance on power supply integrity is analyzed. The impact of varying current profiles is shown to be minimal. In a regular power grid with regular bump connections, the impact of on-chip inductance on the cycle average of the supply voltage can be neglected, even for a worst case estimation of on-chip inductance. Whereas, the maximum ...

We have studied the kinetic inductance fraction (ratio of kinetic inductance to total inductance) of superconducting coplanar waveguides (CPWs) by measuring the resonance frequency of CPW transmission line resonators. We describe a procedure for accurately determining the kinetic inductance of transmission line geometries with small kinetic inductance fractions. In this approach, we compare the...

The chapter addresses the problem by presenting an analytical model for a 3-dimensional single folded loop antenna with detection coverage in space. Based on the antenna theory, the inductance and impedance of the loop antenna is investigated. Design issues including antenna topology, read range, tag orientations, proximity of metal and other antennas are addressed to determine proper antenna f...

We present a new readout method for a superconducting flux qubit, based on the measurement of the Josephson inductance of a superconducting quantum interference device that is inductively coupled to the qubit. The intrinsic flux detection efficiency and backaction are suitable for a fast and nondestructive determination of the quantum state of the qubit, as needed for readout of multiple qubits...
