The schematic of a inverter using a single MOSFET transistor is shown below: The threshold voltage of the transistor Q1 is |VT| = 1 V and channel length modulation can be neglected. (a) Identify a suitable model of the transistor for analysing the above circuit and describe the model mathematically, graphically or as an equivalent circuit. Sketch the voltage-voltage transfer characteristic, Vo - Vi, for the circuit, clearly identifying the state of the transistor based on the proposed model. (b) If the transistor is saturated where Vi < VA and not saturated where Vi > VA, derive an expression for Vo|Vi=VA in terms of the relevant circuit and transistor parameters. If kn = 100 μAV-2 and R = 100 kΩ, determine Vo|Vi=VA in terms of VDD. (c) Assuming no leakage current, calculate the VOH min of the inverter. If, instead, there is a leakage current with equivalent resistance of 3 MΩ when VGS < VT, determine the adjusted VOHmin. Calculate the power lost when Vi = VT/2 in these circumstances.
