Abstract: In an embodiment, an apparatus and system comprising a first inductor with a first diameter; and a switched inductor including a metal layer and a switch; wherein when the switch is closed the switch connects the metal layer of the switched inductor to form an inductor with a parallel circuit enabling current to flow through the switched conductor; and wherein when the switch is open, current is not enabled to flow through the switched conductor. In another embodiment, a method for tuning a high-Q inductor, the method comprising closing a switch of a switched inductor, wherein the switch connects the switched inductor to a first inductor; wherein closing the switch enables current to flow though the switched inductor as well as the first inductor to change the inductance of the high Q inductor.

Abstract: A combinational circuit (e.g., multiplexer or demultiplexer) comprises a sub-circuit that comprises first and second current paths from an input of the combinational circuit to an output of the combinational circuit, such that substantially all input current at the input of the combinational circuit is conducted by the sub-circuit via the first and second current paths to the output of the combinational circuit. The first current path comprises a first inductor and a first switch; and the second current path comprises a second inductor and a second switch. The first inductor is part of an output LC transmission line of the sub-circuit; the second inductor is part of an input LC transmission line of the sub-circuit; and the first and second inductors are sized such that parasitic capacitances of the first and second switches are substantially absorbed by the input and output LC transmission lines.
