Zusammenfassung:In this paper, a closed-form integral representation for the eddy-current losses over a conductive substrate is presented. The results are applicable to monolithic inductors and transformers, especially when such structures are realized over an epitaxial CMOS substrate. The technique is verified against measured results from 100 MHz to 14 GHz for spiral inductors.
