Abstract:
In this paper is presented a method to facilitate the process of design RF circuits and systems using standard industrial CAD system CADENCE. Parameterized cell of square spiral inductor is proposed. It is created using built in Cadence language – SKILL. The use of a standard cell where the geometry parameters of the inductor can be set and change whenever necessary makes the design of inductors and their application in bigger circuits faster and easier and allows much more flexibility. In addition Spectre model is integrated in it, based on the well-known physical model of spiral inductor. Physical verification rules that extract the real parameter from the layout are also written in order to make the parameterized cell complete.
