Abstract—Interference due to inductor crosstalk is a growing
concern in modern RFICs where inductors are placed in close
proximity. A quadrupole inductor is explored as a method to
reduce inductive crosstalk. A quadrupole inductor and standard
inductor are compared with respect to inductance, quality factor,
and area. Then, physics-based calculations are corroborated with
simulation and measurement to predict crosstalk reduction as a
function of position. Mea
