Integrated inductive circuits

Abstract

An RF circuit may be formed over a triple well that creates two reverse biased junctions. By adjusting the bias across the junctions, the capacitance across the junctions can be reduced, reducing the capacitive coupling from the RF circuits to the substrate, improving the self-resonance frequency of inductors and reducing the coupling of unwanted signals and noise from the underlying substrate to the active circuits and passive components such as the capacitors and inductors. As a result, radio frequency devices, such as radios, cellular telephones and transceivers such as Bluetooth transceivers, logic devices and Flash and SRAM memory devices may all be formed in the same integrated circuit die using CMOS fabrication processes.
