This is an incomplete complex CMOS logic gate in which only the NMOS transistors of the pull-down network (PDN) are displayed, but not the pull-up network (PUN) transistors. a) Write the logic function for the output (Y) based on the shown PDN configuration. b) Use De Morgan's laws to rearrange the logic function from expression from part (a) to obtain an expression which the configuration of PMOS transistors in the PUN can be designed directly. c) Draw the corresponding schematic of the PUN.

A full-adder is a basic combinational block used to build complex digital circuits. It is basically a 1-bit adder, that computes the sum S and output carry Cout of two input bits, A and B, plus the initial input carry Cin. The truth table of the full-adder is shown below. Cin A B S Cout 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1. Derive the logic functions for S and Cout. Use only AND, OR, and negation operators in your expressions. You can use whatever method you like (boolean algebra, Karnaugh maps, etc.). 2. Implement both of the functions as static CMOS logic gates (at most followed by an inverter). Draw the transistor-level schematics. You can assume that both the direct and negated versions of each input are available. 3. Size all the devices in the pull-up (PU) networks of your gates, so that the equivalent resistance of each PU is the same as that of a PMOS with W/L = 2. Repeat for the pull-down (PD) networks and a reference NMOS with W/L = 1. When you size a transistor network, you should always consider the input logic values that yield the worst-case equivalent resistance. Neglect the effect of internal node capacitances.

Consider the CMOS complex gate in the figure, whose pMOS network is shown as a box. a) Express the realized logic function and then draw the complete circuit, by drawing the pMOS transistors as well (Redraw nMOS transistors as they are, because you will need them in (b) and (c)) b) Assign each transistor its relative size, such that charging and discharging resistors (corresponding to propagation delays) are same as those of a unit inverter (Assume μn ≈ 2μp ). c) Determine and indicate parasitic capacitances at each relevant node, in terms of unit capacitance C (Consider drain/source capacitance halving only for merged+uncontacted diffusions). Then, express the rising and falling propagation delays ( tpLH and tpHL ) in terms of R and C (Use 0.69 factor as well and include Elmore delays). d) Assume that, as a designer, you feel that the pull-down delay can be improved if the positions of A−D and C-B nMOSTs are replaced (C-B close to the output; A-D close to the ground). Redraw the circuit for this new placing (only nMOSTs are replaced), indicate the relevant parasitic node capacitances and re-calculate tpHL to see if there is an improvement. It will be better if you add your comments as well.

You are given a CMOS logic circuit for which the pull-up network with PMOS transistors has been provided below. (a) Complete the pull-down network with NMOS transistors. (b) For the NMOS transistors in the pull-down network, we'll label the one that uses A, B, C, and D as input as M5, M6, M7, M8, respectively. If inputs A and B are at logic 0 and C and D are at logic 1, determine which of the transistors (M1~M8) are ON and which are OFF. (c) Determine the logic function that is implemented by this CMOS logic circuit.
