An asymmetric spiral inductor is provided. The asymmetric spiral inductor includes a first winding, a second winding and a third winding. The first winding has a first end and a second end and is implemented in the ultra-thick metal (UTM) layer of a semiconductor structure. The second winding, which has a third end and a fourth end, is implemented in the re-distribution layer of the semiconductor structure and has a first maximum trace width. The third winding, which has a fifth end and a sixth end, is implemented in the UTM layer of the semiconductor structure and has a second maximum trace width smaller than the first maximum trace width. The second and third ends are connected through a first through structure, the fourth and fifth ends are connected through a second through structure, and the first and sixth ends are the two ends of the asymmetric spiral inductor.
