Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given specific load capacitance values, design a CMOS inverter where the propagation delay must not exceed 30 ps. What W/L ratios would you choose, and why?
💡 Hint: Consider how each adjustment affects the overall delay.
A CMOS inverter exhibits unusually high static power consumption. Identify possible causes and suggest design adjustments to minimize it.
💡 Hint: Look into the relationship between device structure and leakage.
