    This paper discusses the design and performance of on-chip passive components of transmission lines (TR) and inductors. First, the measurement technique of on chip passives is discussed. A transmission line that can be used for Gbps signal propagation on Si CMOS is examined. As a high density transmission line structure of diagonal-pair differential TR line is described. Also, a circuit and TR line is introduced for above 10 Gbps signal propagation. The on-chip inductor which is a key passive component in RF application of Si CMOS technology is discussed. We examine some on-chip inductors that have been developed in our group: small area inductor, high performance inductor using WL-CSP (Wafer-Level Chip-Size-Packaging) technology. Finally, a wide tuning range LC-VCO using a variable inductor for RF reconfigurable circuit is introduced.
