A one-transistor DRAM cell consists of an NMOS transistor Q and a storage capacitor Cs. The gate of the transistor is connected to the word-line (Word i), and its drain (source) is connected to the bit-line (Bit j). Note that the bit-line has a capacitance CB much larger than the cell capacitance Cs. During a read cycle, the bit-line is always pre-charged to 0.5VDD volts. During a write cycle, the bit-line is raised to VDD volts in order to store a "1" in the cell, while the bit-line is reset to 0 volt, in order to store a "0" in the cell. a) Using charge conservation technique, derive an equation for the change in the voltage (ΔV) on the bit-line when the input voltage to the word-line is changed from 0 to VDD volts, connecting the storage capacitor CS to the bit-line. b) In a particular DRAM chip, CS = 30 fF, CB = 1 PF, VDD = 5 V, transistor's threshold voltage Vt = 1.5 Volts. Calculate the readout voltage (ΔV) for a stored " 1 " and a stored " 0 ".

The circuit in Figure 1 is an NMOS switch circuit. Assume VDD = 5 V, γ = 0.4 V1/2, 2∣φf∣ = 0.6 V, VTO = 1 V, kn′ = 100 μA/V2, (W/L) = 10, and λ = 0.1 V−1. The channel length modulation is applicable only in the saturation region. a. Determine the charging current to CL right after the rising edge of the input. Assume that the capacitor is completely discharge at the beginning of the transition. Make sure that you include all applicable device parameters in your calculations. b. Determine the charging current to CL when the output voltage is at 50% of VDD. Again, make sure that you include all applicable device parameters in your calculation. c. Use the results from parts a and b to estimate the low-to-high propagation delay (tpLH) of the NMOS switch in Figure 1. d. Use PSPICE and measure the tpLH of the circuit in Figure 1 and compare your results with part c. (Hint: the .model for this device is shown below of this page)
