A completely integrated 2 GHz VCO with post-processed Cu inductors
A simple post-processing technique allowing Cu inductors to be added to integrated circuits is presented. The inductors use a 4 /spl mu/m thick Cu layer, and are formed over a 9 /spl mu/m thick polyimide dielectric. VCOs with Cu inductors gave a phase noise of -106 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset from a 2 GHz carrier. In contrast, an identical control circuit with Al inductors gave a phase noise of only -101 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset from a 1.8 GHz carrier and had higher power consumption.
