N-diffusion inside P-well defines NMOS transistor.

P-diffusion inside N-well defines PMOS transistor.

Layout Stick diagram


Layout is too detailed and works well in software. For rough handy area estimate stick
diagrams are recommended !!

Horizontally => 2 tracks of metal & 2 diffusions.

Vertically => 2 tracks of metal.

Area = (2 x 8λ) x (4 x 8λ)

Each metal track is of width 4 λ, and is spaced 4 λ


with other metal or diffusion.
Area = (3 x 8λ) x (5 x 8λ) for 1:1 P:N ratio 2-NAND.

Area = (3 x 8λ ) x (5 x 8λ + 4 λ+4 λ) for 2:2 P:N ratio 2-NAND.


Higher than 2:2 2-NAND gate !!
C is unnecessarily grounded rather than connected to output Y.

Other problem is the metal tracks cross which short circuits X


connection with output.
