  • 在這篇論文中,我們提出了兩種新型電感架構。在射頻電路中,特別是壓控振盪器之設計,電感是最重要的元件。因此針對電感的使用上,我們將此新型電感應用於振盪器中。
    在射頻積體電路系統中,整合性的需求越來越高的情況下,每個射頻電路方塊將會被整合進去晶片中。因此系統之雜訊的抑制能力必須相對的提高,否則電路間雜訊互相影響的情況越嚴重,則會造成各元件間的特性效能越降低。嚴重時甚至會使其他元件的功能失去正常的工作狀態而造成電路誤動作。根據上述所說的雜訊耦合量之間的問題,我們設計出第一個新型的電感來解決傳統型的電感,不管是螺旋式電感、或是對稱式電感,其所造成嚴重的雜訊耦合量問題。第二個新型電感則是解決第一顆新型電感無法提高感值的缺點。也就是說我們預期這個新型的電感除了減少電路之間的雜訊耦合量,還能能夠增加其可用性,並使系統電路間互相干擾的能量變小,來達到各較好的效能。
    在新型電感的設計中,我們改善傳統型螺旋電感無法抵抗外來磁場的缺點。並且針對外徑、線寬、線距、以及圈數,做電性特性之模擬與分析。探討其變異量對感值與品質因素的影響。然後對於新型電感的架構做進一步的改善,從新型電感(I)到新型電感(III),使其使用性更加完善,減少其不便性。在新型電感與傳統螺旋電感的比較之下,新型電感抑制雜訊耦合量的能力比傳統型電感強之外,此外面積也比傳統型電感來的小。
    最後將所設計的電感應用在射頻電路的振盪器上。在振盪器的使用上,則是利用電感與電容當作共振腔以及用互補式交錯耦合架構來完成。此振盪器其操作頻率應用在6.336 GHz,符合超寬頻的應用之載頻頻率之一。然後藉由觀察雜訊耦合量的大小去驗證新型電感,的確可以使得雜訊耦合量少於傳統型螺旋電感。根據實驗結果,其操作頻率為7.1GHz,而且新型電感所產生的雜訊耦合量也確實比傳統型電感小。這結果意味著此新型電感是能夠應用於射頻電路當中,並且有效的抑制雜訊耦合量,進一步減少電路間的互相影響與干擾。

    The novel inductors have been presented in this dissertation. In the radio-frequency integrated circuit (RFIC), inductors are constantly used for the RF circuit designs, especially for voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO). Hence concerning the use of the inductors, we will apply the novel inductor into the VCO.
    As the integration requirements get more and more in the RFIC system, every RF block will be integrated into the chip. Therefore the ability of restraining noise must be enhanced relatively, or the mutual influences between the circuit blocks are stronger to make every element’s performance low. Even it will make the element’s function not to work ordinarily and then let the circuit get wrong function. According to the problem of the coupling effect above discussion, we design three novel inductors to solve the problem the traditional inductor induces coupling effect. On the other words, we expect that the novel inductor is able to decrease the noise coupling in order to reduce the mutual interfering power between the circuits of system and get better performance.
    We improve the defect the conventional spiral inductor cannot to resist the external magnetic field’s interference in the design of the novel inductor, and directing the radius, width, space, and turns, we simulate and analyze the characters of the inductors in order to discuss the influences of variations on inductance and quality factor. Then what are further improved for the novel inductor’s structures from the novel inductor (I) to novel inductor (III) makes the usability flawless and decreases the inconvenience. At the comparison between the novel inductor and traditional spiral inductor, the ability the novel inductor resists the coupling power is stronger than the traditional inductor, besides the area of the novel inductor is also smaller than conventional inductor.
    Finally, the designed inductor is applied to VCO in the RFIC. Then in the use of VCO, this novel inductor and varactors are utilized to be resonant tank and be implemented to VCO by complementary cross-couple pair. The operating frequency of VCO is in 6.336 GHz, and that conforms to the applying carrier frequency in the sub-bank of UWB. Then according to observing magnitude of the noise coupling to verify the novel inductor, the novel inductor is sure able to make the noise coupling less than traditional inductor. In the measurement result, the operating frequency is 7.1 GHz, and the coupling the novel inductor induces is less than conventional inductor indeed.
    Consequently, this result imply this novel inductor is capable of applying into the RFIC, and effective in restrain the noise coupling to further decrease the influence and interference between the circuits.
