Part 2: Analysis of a CMOS Inverter's Dynamic Behavior Objective: Perform hand calculations of switching delays through a CMOS inverter. Consider a CMOS inverter such as the one shown in Figure 2. The delay times, trise and tsunv , will be determined by the current-driving capacities of the PMOS and NMOS transistors, respectively, as well as the magnitude of the load capacitance CL. Figure 2. CMOS Inverter The rise time trice for a CMOS inverter can be calculated as: tnse = CLΔV IDAvg , where IDP wg is the average of the PMOS currents at the 10% point of the low-to-high transition (Vout = Vtow ) and at the 90% point (Voor = Vsow ). Likewise, the fall time tfall for a CMOS inverter can be calculated as: tsanl = CLΔV IDavg , where ID timg is the average of the NMOS currents at the 90% of the high-to-low transition (Vout = VSop ) and at the 10% point (Vous = V10%). ⇒ Calculate the expected rise and fall times, trise and tfall . Use LCM equations with a load capacitance value of 25 pF. Use VT0 = 0.4 V, kn′ = 432 μA/V2, |2ϕϝ| = 0.88 V, γ = 0.2 V1 /2, λ = 0 V−1, WN = 2 μm, and LN = 100 nm for the NMOS device. Use Vpv = −0.4 V, kp′ = 108 μA/V2, |2ϕF| = 0.88 V, γ = 0.2 V1 /2, λ = 0 V−1, Wp = 8 μm, and Lp = 100 nm for the PMOS device.

Part 1: Design of a CMOS Inverter Objective: Design a CMOS inverter so as to achieve a given performance specification. Figure 1. CMOS Inverter Consider a CMOS inverter such as the one shown in Figure 1. For the NMOS driver, use VT0 = 0.4 V, kn′ = 432 μA/V2, 2ϕF∣ = 0.88 V, γ = 0.2 V1 /2, λ = 0 V−1, Wn = 25 μm, and Ln = 0.1 μm. For the PMOS load, use VT0 = −0.4 V, kp′ = 108 μA/V2, |2ϕF| = 0.88 V, γ = 0.2 V1 /2, λ = 0 V−1, and Lp = 0.1 μm. ⇒ Design the inverter - i. e. , determine the value of Wp for the PMOS load - so as to make the noise margins equal: NML = NMH. In order to limit calculation complexity while still obtaining a reasonably accurate estimate, use the long-channel equations for NMOS and PMOS devices calculations. Round your calculated value of Wp to the nearest multiple of 0.05 μm. ⇒ Using your rounded value for Wp, calculate the expected value for the switching threshold, Vth. ⇒ Lastly, double the rounded value of Wp, then calculate the revised value of the switching threshold, Vth .

An NMOS amplifier is shown in Figure 1. Transistor M1 is biased in the saturation region for an amplifier application. The circuit is biased with a resistive voltage divider consisting of R1 and R2, a source degeneration resistor RS, and a load resistor RD. The drain bias current for the design is ID = 500 μA and VDS is 1.625 V. The device parameters are: L = 0.5 μm, W = 10 μm, kn’ = 200 μA/V2, Vtn = 0.5 V, and λn = 0. analyze the frequency response of the amplifier. a) Draw a midband small signal ac equivalent circuit model for the amplifier. For midband you can assume the reactance of Cin is sufficiently low that it is a short circuit. b) Derive an expression for the midband voltage gain transfer function Vout /Vsig. The amplified output signal is taken from the drain terminal and Vout = Vd. Write your gain function in terms of variables only. c) Evaluate the midband gain and calculate a value both in V/V and dB. d) Analyze the frequency response of the input network including the capacitor Cin. Find an expression for the transfer function H1(jω) = Vg/Vsig. e) Evaluate H1(jω) = Vg/Vsig and make a Bode plot of the magnitude of H1(jω). The x-axis is ω (log scale) and the y-axis is the magnitude in dB. f) Use the LTSPICE circuit template and verify the frequency response of the amplifier circuit. Include a copy of the schematic and the frequency response plot. Use 20 points per decade and a frequency span of 0.1 Hz to 100 Hz.
