Given a NAND gate with specific NMOS sizes, calculate how changing NMOS width to meet a 50% decrease in propagation delay would affect the overall circuit performance. What trade-offs should be considered?
💡 Hint: Think about how the increase in width impacts the capacitance and delay.
Design a circuit using both NAND and NOR gates for a specific logical function (e.g., an adder). Explain how you would size the transistors and the rationale behind the choices made.
💡 Hint: Consider the logical relationships they're performing and how that affects their gate sizing decisions.
