Abstract. A fast and accurate equivalent circuit model for spiral inductors on lossy silicon substrate is presented and the parameters of the model are extracted without applying any fitting and optimized methods. In this model, the lateral resistance and inductance of substrate are introduced to model the eddy-current losses induced by magnetic coupling between the spiral and the substrate. FastHenry method is used to extract the inductances of spiral, substrate, and the mutual inductance between them. A numerical formulation is used to efficiently capture the proximity and skin effects in metal tracks. The proposed model is used to predict the performance of two typical spiral inductors fabricated in CMOS technology. The model shows excellent accuracy and efficiency by the comparison with measure results at the frequency from 100MHz to 10GHz.

In the transient analysis of an engineering power electronics device, the order of its equivalent circuit model is excessive large. To eliminate this issue, some model order reduction (MOR) methods are proposed in the literature. Compared to other MOR methods, the structure-preserving reduced-order interconnect macromodeling (SPRIM) based on Krylov subspaces will achieve a higher reduction radio and precision for large multi-port Resistor-Capacitor-Inductor (RCL) circuits. However, for very wide band frequency transients, the performance of a Krylov subspace-based MOR method is not satisfactory. Moreover, the selection of the expansion point in this method has not been comprehensively studied in the literature. From this point of view, a broadband enhanced structure-preserving reduced-order interconnect macromodeling (SPRIM) method is proposed to reduce the order of equation sets of a transient interconnect circuit model. In addition, a method is introduced to determine the optimal expansion point at each frequency in the proposed method. The proposed method is validated by the numerical results on a transient problem of an insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT)-based inverter busbar under different exciting conditions.
