    Hi,

    Many technologies have build-in pcells for the inductors, it will save
    you tons of time, and it has build-in model for that too. It means you
    don't need to model the inductor by yourself.

    If your process technology don't have inductor pcell, you can layout
    it by some other tools and imported it to Cadence. ASITIC is one of
    the good free tools you may want have a try.

    It can layout the inductor and create a PI model for that inductor.

    You can also choose to layout in Virtosu by hand, it need quite bit of
    work, and you still need to port it the third party tools to model it.
