@Amro Tork I found out that you taped out several coils in MPW, did you get a chance to measure them? Also, did you use Fasthenry2 for the simulation?

@Amro Tork Thank you for your response. May I ask if you used Fasthenry2 to simulate the inductors? If yes, how did you handle converting GDS file to .inp file (fasthenry input)?
Thanks @Amro Tork! @mehdi @Tim Edwards It would be great if you could share/release the setup to convert GDS files from sky130 into Fasthenry compatible input.

@Ali Olyanasab: There is a command in magic
extresist fasthenry
. I developed the command option when I was doing work at MultiGiG on rotary traveling wave oscillator structures. That was many years ago, and I'm not sure if it still works correctly or not.
