Making inductor with Cadence layout editor

ATA17

How can I make an inductor in cadence layout and simulate it ??? Do you have any guides ?

1) I know how to make inductor but I dont know how to simulate.

2) I am not talking about inductors in library. I want to make my own inductor.

Thank you.

    Let me explain my problem here:

    I have an inductor with n=0.5 and W=30um.

    When I set these values in the inductor which is defined in RF library it gives error that W cant be 30um when n=0.5.

    So I want to edit the layout, increase W to 30um and simulate the inductor to see which value I obtain.

    You'd need to use an EM simulator from one of Cadence's connection partners - for example, Keysight Momentum, Ansys HFSS, Sonnet, Lorentz Solution and so on.

    Regards,
