Abstract
Three dimensional (3D) integration attempts to keep Moore's Law effectively in the years to come. Through-silicon-vias (TSV) processes offer a step towards 3D integration. In this work, the aspects of inductors in the TSV technologies are studied. Various TSV inductor topologies are examined both theoretically and by means of numerical simulations. As results show, true 3D vertical inductor designs offer improvements in inductance and quality factor over the planar ones.
