Abstract

This chapter looks at numerous alternatives for implementing passive components. It covers the basic theory of transmission lines and illustrate how transmission-line terminations can be used to turn the line into a resistive, capacitive or inductive distributed element. Various lumped topologies for resistors, capacitors and inductors are discussed in detail, whether implemented on chip, on package, or discreetly. Active alternatives for implementation of passives is also considered. Emerging technologies for the implementation of passives, such as micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) or other fabrication methods are also mentioned. In view of its importance for LNA design, a substantial portion of this chapter is dedicated to different inductor implementations and modeling of inductors.
