Given the following circuit, assuming that all inputs of the circuit shown in Figure 1 below are initially 0 during the precharge phase and that all internal nodes are at 0V: a. Calculate the voltage drop on V0, if A changes to 1 (VDD = 2.5 V) during the evaluate phase. It is given that Vtn = 0.5 V, 2φF = 0.6 V and γ = 0.4 V0.5 . Hint: Don’t forget the body effect. b. Now calculate the voltage drop on Vo if both A and B change to 1 (under the above conditions). c. What is the maximum number of transistors that can be connected in series to M1 and M2 (including M1 and M2, excluding M0 ) if the output should not fall below 0.9 V during the evaluate phase? Assume that each one of the new transistors has the same intrinsic capacitance (to ground) as M1 and M2 (C=10fF).
