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).

For the circuit shown in Figure 2, VDD = 5 V, and transistors M1 and M2 have properties µnCox = 200µA/V2, (W/L) = 10, Vt0 = 0.7 V, and λ = 0. You may neglect the body effect below, unless you are specifically asked to consider it. Figure 2. Circuit for Problem 2. a) Draw the circuit above, and label the drain, gate, source, and bulk nodes for both transistors, using labels VD1, VG1, VS1, and VB1 for the drain, gate, source, and bulk nodes of device M1, respectively, and similarly for M2. In total, there should be 8 labels in your schematic. For this part, assume the transistors are in saturation. b) Determine the valid input range for the circuit under consideration; that is, determine the range on the input voltage Vin such that transistors M1 and M2 are operating in the saturation region. Note that, in your analysis, you are not constrained to Vin values between 0 V and VDD, inclusive; e.g., if Vin = 100 V keeps both of the transistors in saturation, then Vin = 100 V should be included in your range of valid input voltages. Your answer to this part should take the form Vin,low ≤ Vin ≤ Vin,high ; hopefully, it is obvious that you are being asked to provide numerical answers for the lower- and upper-bounds Vin,low and Vin,high , respectively. c) For the valid input range that you determined in part (b), determine the corresponding output voltage range; that is, determine Vout,low ≤ Vout ≤ Vout,high when the input is constrained to Vin,low ≤ Vin ≤ Vin,high. . As before, you should report numerical values for the lower- and upper-bounds Vout,low and Vout,high, , respectively. d) Determine the "on voltage" VON2 (or, as in the Sedra/Smith textbook, the "overdrive voltage") and drain current ID2 of transistor M2 over the range of valid input voltages. Also, determine the drain current ID1 of M1 over the valid input range. e) If you were to consider it, would any of the transistors in the circuit above be affected by the body effect? If "yes," then list the device (or, devices, as the case may be). Qualitatively speaking, how would your answers to parts (b) and (c) change if you were to take the body effect into account? Explain your reasoning.

FETs can be used to either pull an output high or to pull it low, but NFETs are generally better in digital applications for pulling outputs low and PFETs for pulling outputs high. Consider an NFET with characteristics: NMOS: kn′ = 115 μA/V2, VT0 = 0.43 V, λ = 0.06 V−1, VDSAT = 0.6 V, W/L = 2, and a supply voltage of Vdd = 2.0 V. Say the NFET is used to pull a capacitor high: (a) How low can the NFET pull the output voltage and still be turned "on"? (b) Considering your answer to part (a) above, what is the highest output voltage, Vout , max that will be seen using an NFET as a pull-up? (c) When the output voltage is within 0.1 V of its maximum, Vout = Vout,max − 0.1, what state is the NFET in (saturation, cut-off, linear)? (d) What is the current, approximately, through the NFET when Vout = Vout,max − 0.1 ?
