1. A structure of a helix coil inductor created over a silicon substrate having a plane, comprising:

  • a silicon substrate having Cartesian X and Cartesian Y coordinates with corresponding silicon substrate X and Y axis perpendicularly intercepting, said point of interception of said silicon substrate X and Y axis being located in an arbitrary location over said substrate;

    a multiplicity of lower level conductors located in a plane parallel with a plane of said silicon substrate, said multiplicity of lower level conductors comprising;

    (i) at least one first lower level conductor having a length exceeding a length of all other lower level conductors; and

    (ii) at least one second lower level conductor having a length at variance with the length of the at least one first lower level conductor;

    a multiplicity of upper level conductors located in a plane parallel with said plane of said silicon substrate, whereby said upper level conductors are separated from said lower level conductors, said multiplicity of upper level conductors comprising;

    (i) at least one first upper level conductor having a length exceeding a length of all other upper level conductors; and

    (ii) at least one second upper level conductor having a length at variance with the length of the at least one first upper level conductor;

    a multiplicity of vertical interconnect conductors of uniform height located in a plane perpendicular with said plane of said silicon substrate, said vertical interconnect conductors having a circular cross section having a radius; and

    helix coil Cartesian X and Cartesian Y coordinates with corresponding helix coil X and Y axis perpendicularly intercepting.
