Abstract
A novel active inductor approach, which can improve the quality-factor, was presented in this report. A current reuse active inductor circuit topology was proposed, which can substantially improve its equivalent inductance. This active inductor was implemented by using a 0. 18- CMOS technology,which gives a maximum quality-factor of 15 with a 6. 7 nH at 6GHz. The dc power consumption of this active inductor is less than 186 mW.
