Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a FinFET circuit that experiences a delay of 5 ns due to high Cg. Propose a redesign strategy that addresses this issue.

💡 Hint: Look into how geometric changes impact capacitance.

Challenge 2 Hard

If the total capacitance (Cg + Cgd + Cgs) of a FinFET circuit is contributing to unexpected delays, what steps could you take to analyze the situation?

💡 Hint: Think about how capacitance affects timing and test different configurations.
