본 논문에서는 축대칭 유한요소법을 이용하여 고주파에서 사용하는 스파이럴 인덕터를 분석하였다. 스파이럴 인덕터는 고주파 운용시 인덕터 도체에서 발생하는 표피 효과와 근접 효과, 실리콘 기판의 전도성으로 인한 와전류에 의한 저항 손실, 그리고 대류 전류에 의한 기생 용량으로 인덕턴스의 감소와 같은 현상이 발생한다. 이러한 다양한 전자기적 기생 효과들이 실리콘 기판에서 스파이럴 인덕터의 성능을 저하시키게 된다. 그러므로 이러한 점들이 실리콘 기판에서 스파이럴 인덕터를 설계 및 모델링 함에 있어서 동기를 부여해 준다. 그래서 우리는 복잡한 형상에도 적용이 용이한 유한요소법을 이용하여 스파이럴 인덕터를 해석 및 설계하였다.

The coils to transmit the electric energy are necessary to charge an electric vehicle wirelessly. There are several types of coils, from basic circular coils to DD-type coils for enhancing the coupling effect between two coils. However, DD-type coils with a good coupling effect between coils have a disadvantage in use because of the structure complexity of the power conversion device of transmitting and receiving side. In this paper, we propose a method to calculate the inductance value and to design the size of the spiral inductor which is convenient to fabricate when the power is transmitted wirelessly by using two coils in free space. Since the bifurcation phenomenon occurs when the XLm value is similar to the load resistance value in the resonator the XLm value was selected to be equal to the minimum load resistance value to minimize this phenomenon, and the inductance value required for the resonator was calculated. In order to realize the calculated inductance value by the spiral inductor, the relationship between the inductance value and the size, the number of turns, the total coil length of a spiral inductor was investigated. In addition, the change of coupling coefficient k according to the horizontal separation of two coils was examined and an appropriate inductor was selected.

본 논문에서는 초소형 DC-DC 컨버터에 쓰이는 파워인덕터를 설계하였다. 제안된 인덕터는 Ni-Zn 페라이트와 Polyimide 혼합물질을 이용하여, 경화온도를 낮추어 유기기판(FR-4)에서도 적용될 수 있는 인덕터를 설계했다. 인덕터의 크기는 $5mm{\times}4.5mm{\times}0.5mm$ 이고, 도선의 물질은 구리(Cu)를 사용하였으며, 18${\mu}m$의 두께, 85${\mu}m$의 선폭, 85${\mu}m$의 선 간격으로 디자인 하였다. 그리고 구조는 2층 적층의 스파이럴 구조를 제안하여 소형화에 보다 유리하도록 설계를 하였다. 페라이트 혼합물질을 샌드위치 타입으로 EMI shielding한 인덕터의 경우 동작 주파수 5MHz에서 912nH의 인덕턴스, 29의 품질계수 특성을 나타냈으며, 그 결과 초소형 DC-DC 컨버터용 인덕터로서 소형화와 높은 효율을 만족하였다.

In this paper, a 3-D EM simulation methodology for on-chip spiral inductor analysis has provided and it is shown that the methodology can be adapted to the highly predictable design for CMOS VCO. LC-resonator type VCO have fabricated by using standard 0.25 um CMOS process. And the LC VCO layout case which has pattern ground shielded inductors and the other layout case which has no pattern grounded inductors were fabricated for the verification of their effects on the VCO's phase noise by reducing the Q-factor of inductors. Fabricated VCO has 3.094 GHz, -12.15 dBm output at the tuning voltage of 2.5 V, and from the simulation, Q-factor of the pattern grounded inductor has increased 8% at 3 GHz, and from the measurement results, the phase noise has reduced by 9 dB at the 3 MHz off-set frequency for the pattern grounded inductor layout case.

In this paper, the spiral antenna with the center frequencies of 315MHz, 433MHz, and 447MHz for RKE system of a vehicle is designed on PCB. The antenna is microstrip line-fed, and applied PIFA concept near the feeding part to easily tune center frequency and input impedance. The PIFA-type spiral antenna with the size of $30mm{\times}20mm$ is designed on printed PCB by considering the effect of circuits and components on PCB, ECU case and vehicle body. Also chip inductor inserted dual-band spiral antenna of 315MHz and 447MHz is designed. We found that the antenna designed on PCB satisfied the antenna specifications through measurement and field test.

In this paper, various spiral zeroth-order resonators are proposed for wireless power transmission. Since a zerothorder resonance(ZOR) mode of meta-material transmission lines has the characteristic of an infinite wavelength, its frequency is independent of physical length. Also, to obtain high transmission efficiencies high-Q resonators and strong coupling coefficient between coupled resonators are required. Therefore, the resonators consist of spiral inductor and lumped capacitor to use the ZOR mode and they are optimized via parametric study and circuit analysis for a high-Q resonator design. The optimized resonators are simulated and compared with a conventional spiral resonator and one of them was fabricated and measured. The fabricated one has a dimension of $20cm{\times}20cm{\times}8cm$($0.009{\lambda}_0{\times}0.009_{\lambda}_0{\times}0.004{\lambda}_0$) and the transmission efficiency of 80 % is measured at 13.56 MHz at transmitted distance of 40 cm.

Recently, It has been reported that the spin sprayed ferite film shows better magnetic properties at high frequeny that the ferrite by co-firing over $800^{\circ}C$ . Besides, there is no limitation to select the substrate materials because it can be processed with relatively low temperature below $100^{\circ}C$. Therefore, we fabricated film inductor as a passive device for DC-DC converter by a use of spin sprayed embedded form was completed by via hole process of pad opening. Saturation magnetization of 0.61 T and real part of permeability of 110 were obtained in Ni-Zn ferrite. In addition, inductance of 1.52 ${\mu}H$, quality factor of 24.3 at 5 MHz were measured with spiral 16 turn inductor. The rated current of inductor was 863 mA.

To design a spiral inductor a genetic algorithm is applied with fast computing technique. For the inductance extraction of the given geometry the fast multipole method is used, also the distributed computing technique using 10 personal computers is introduced for the massive computation of the genetic algorithm. A few important design parameters are used as genes for the optimization in the genetic algorithm. The target function is chosen as mean square error of the inductance at several sampling frequency points. A large-scaled inductor is fabricated and compared with the simulated data.

In this work, a highly integrated downconverter MMIC employing HBT(heterojunction bipolar transistor) was developed for application to one chip tranceiver solution of Ku-band commercial wireless communication system. The downconverter MMIC (monolithic microwave integrated circuit) includes mixer filter. amplifier and input/output matching circuit. Especially, spiral inductor structures employing SiN film were used for a suppression of LO and its second harmonic leakage signals. Concretely, they were properly designed so that the self-resonance frequency was accurately tuned to LO and its second harmonic frequency, and they were integrated on the downconverter MMIC.

The spiral type thin-film inductor performed in high frequency at 2-5[MHz] range is analyzed by 2-dimensional Finite Element Method(2D FEM). The features of micro thin-film inductor have complicated electromagnetic phenomenon such as skin effect, proximity effect and magnetic saturation. To develope miniatured magnetic device considering these features, it is important to predict the property of the thin film inductor according to design parameter. In this paper, we present the 2D FEM analysis for the spiral type thin film inductor. The characteristics of inductor from point of view of inductance, resistance and quality factor are studied according to design parameter and various pattern construction.
