Introduction
• Complementary MOSFET (CMOS) technology is widely used today
to form circuits in numerous and varied applications. Today’s
computers, CPUs and cell phones make use of CMOS due to
several key advantages. CMOS offers low power dissipation,
relatively high speed, high noise margins in both states, and will
operate over a wide range of source and input voltages (provided
the source voltage is fixed)
• The inverter is the nucleus of all digital designs.
• Once its operation and properties are clearly understood,
designing more intricate structures such as NAND gates, adders,
multipliers, and microprocessors is greatly simplified.
• The electrical behavior of these complex circuits can be almost
completely derived by extrapolating the results obtained for
inverters.
Ideal Inverter
• Here A is the input and B is the inverted output
represented by their node voltages.
• Using positive logic, the Boolean value of logic 1 is
represented by Vdd and logic 0 is represented by 0. Vth
is the inverter threshold voltage, which is Vdd /2, where
Vdd is the output voltage.
• The output is switched from 0 to Vdd when input is less
than Vth. So, for 0<Vin<Vth output is equal to logic 0
input and Vth<Vin< Vdd is equal to logic 1 input for
inverter.
Generalized circuit structure of an nMOS inverter
• Mathematically,
ID=Kn2[VGS−VTO]2
ID=Kn2[VGS−VTO]2
• Increasing the input voltage further,
driver transistor will enter into the
linear region and output of the driver
transistor decreases.
