Various methods for analyzing mutual inductance in an integrated circuit layout are disclosed. In one exemplary embodiment, for example, circuit design information indicative of a first inductor and a second inductor is received. A dipole moment associated with the first inductor is determined, where...http://www.google.co.uk/patents/US8161438?utm_source=gb-gplus-sharePatent US8161438 - Determining mutual inductance between intentional inductors
