Abstract
To design a spiral inductor a genetic algorithm is applied with fast computing technique. For the inductance extraction of the given geometry the fast multipole method is used, also the distributed computing technique using 10 personal computers is introduced for the massive computation of the genetic algorithm. A few important design parameters are used as genes for the optimization in the genetic algorithm. The target function is chosen as mean square error of the inductance at several sampling frequency points. A large-scaled inductor is fabricated and compared with the simulated data.
