Stacked Inductor for LNA (Read 2424 times)

uncle_ezra Community Member Offline Posts: 90	Stacked Inductor for LNA Sep 01^st, 2006, 1:22am Hi, I have used a Stacked Inductor with 9um width for LNA running at 10mA for my test chip. This clearly violates the electromigration rules. Will the metal melt or fail when I test it? Or is it just a concern at high temperature and lifetime expectancy? Thanks
