In the dynamic logic circuit shown below, all the transistors have the minimum channel length, and their sizes (widths) are marked. The inverter at the output is a standard static CMOS inverter with a PMOS size of 2 and an NMOS size of 1 . For a unit-sized NMOS or PMOS transistor, the intrinsic capacitance at its drain or source terminal is CD, and the capacitance at its gate is CG. For unit-sized NMOS and PMOS transistors, their onresistances are RN and RP, respectively. CD = CG = 1 fF and RP = 2 RN = 2 kΩ. (a) Express y as a Boolean function of the inputs A, B, C and D in the evaluation phase (CLK = 1). (b) Find the capacitances at nodes y, a, b and c, respectively. (c) Let A = B = D = 1 and C = 0 and suppose nodes a, b and c are at 0 V in the pre-charge phase (CLK = 0). Estimate the time it takes for the voltage at y to decrease from VDD to VDD/2 in the evaluation phase. (d) Repeat (c) if nodes a, b and c are at VDD in the pre-charge phase. (e) If the inputs are C = 1 and A = B = D = 0 and suppose nodes a, b and c are at 0 V in the pre-charge phase. Considering the charge sharing effect, what is the voltage at node y in the evaluation phase? It is known VDD = 2.5 V, VTN = 0.5 V and the body effect of the transistors can be ignored.

(CMOS Logic Gate Design - 10 points) Recall that CMOS logic gates consist of a pull-down and a pull-up network comprising of NMOS and PMOS transistors, respectively. Moreover, CMOS gates implement inverting logic. Keeping this in mind, design a CMOS gate that implements the following Boolean expressions. Note that you are asked to design just one logic gate implementing the entire Boolean function. Use as few transistors as possible. Make sure to label the input (gate of each transistor) variables accordingly. Furthermore, don’t forget to show where the output of the logic gate is. a) X • Y + Z b) A • B + C • D c) A¯ + B¯ + C¯ d) (A¯ + B¯) • (C¯ + D¯)

The following circuit diagram shows the use of two such MOS transistors for the implementation of a fundamental logic gate in digital ICs. Both MOS transistors (M1 & M2) have the same threshold voltage VT = 0.5 V and µCox = 10-4 A/V2. Fig. 2.1 (a). What are the operation modes of the MOS transistors (MI&M2) when the input is a logic “low” signal (i.e. Vin = 0 V )? (b). Find out the expression of the current flowing through the MOS transistor M2 as a function of the output voltage Vout. Then determine the current when Vout = 1.5 V. (c). Using results in (a) and (b) as a hint, hence or otherwise, determine VOH (i.e. the maximum output voltage when the output is a logic “high” signal). (d). Based on the results in (b) and (c), hence or otherwise, describe two advantages of digital circuits with CMOS implementation compared with the implementation in Fig. 2.1. (e). Draw a schematic circuit diagram of the CMOS implementation of the logic circuit in Fig. 2.1. You must use standard circuit symbols and show the signal interconnections clearly with proper labels.
