    The document contains three problems related to analyzing the timing characteristics of CMOS inverters. Problem 1 involves calculating the threshold voltage, transistor resistances, rise/fall times for a minimum sized inverter. Problem 2 extends this to a more complex inverter, calculating propagation delays driving an identical inverter. Problem 3 takes the inverter from Problem 2 and calculates its propagation delay when loaded with an additional 0.1pF capacitance.

    1. A CMOS inverter with minimum sized transistors has βn =0.2mA/V2, βp =


    0.1mA/V2 and Vtn=|Vtp|=0.6V. Assume VDD = 3.3V.
    a) What is the inverter gate switching threshold (midpoint) voltage VM?
    b) What is the resistance for each transistor using our general expression for
    MOSFET resistance in saturation?
    c) What are the rise and fall times of this circuit if the parasitic capacitance at the
    output is 9fF?
    d) If a load capacitance, CL = 25fF is added to the output, what are the new rise
    and fall times?
    e) What are the propagation delays for this circuit considering both parasitic and
    load capacitances?

    2. Consider a CMOS inverter fabricated in a 0.25-μmprocess for which


    Cox=6 fF/μm2, μnCox =110 μA/V2, μpCox=30 μA/V2, Vtn=–Vtp=0.5 V, and
    VDD=2.5V. The W/L ratio of QN is 0.375 μm/0.25 μm, and that for QP is 1.125
    μm/0.25 μm. The gate–source and gate–drain overlap capacitances are specified to
    be 0.3 fF/μm of gate width. Further, the effective (large-signal) values of drain–
    body capacitances are Cdbn=1fF and Cdbp=1fF. The wiring capacitance Cw=0.2fF.
    Find tPHL, tPLH , and tP when the inverter is driving an identical inverter.

    3. Consider the inverter specified in Problem 2 when loaded with an additional 0.1-
    pF capacitance. What will the propagation delay become?
