Claim:
1. A peaking inductor array, the peaking inductor array comprising: a plurality of cells connected in parallel, each cell comprising a respective active inductor, each respective active inductor comprising a respective decoupling capacitor and a respective selectable resistor, wherein the respective decoupling capacitor and the respective selectable resistor in each cell are connected in series, wherein a capacitance of the respective decoupling capacitor in each cell is larger than intrinsic and extrinsic capacitances of the respective active inductor, wherein each respective selectable resistor comprises a respective switch in series with a respective resistor, and wherein each respective switch is opened or closed to control peaking of the peaking inductor array in two dimensions.
