5 Logic Circuit Delay For CMOS (or almost all logic circuit families), only one fundamental equation necessary to determine delay: I C Consider the discretized version: Rewrite to solve for delay: dv Only three ways to make faster logic: C, ΔV, I dt Δt I C C ΔV I ΔV Δt Amirtharajah/Parkhurst, EEC 8 Spring 0 6

8 CMOS Inverter Gate Capacitances Gate capacitances C GD,p and C GD,n : Just after the input switches(t 0 + ), what regions are transistors in? One is in cutoff: C GD Overlap Cap One is in Saturation: C GD Overlap Cap Therefore, gate-to-drain capacitance is due to overlap capacitance : C gd, p Cgd, n C ox WL D However, also need to consider Miller effect... Amirtharajah/Parkhurst, EEC 8 Spring 0 9

9 CMOS Inverter Capacitances: Miller Effect C gd Vout Vout Vin Vin C gd When input rises by ΔV, output falls by ΔV Change in stored charge: ΔQ C gd ΔV (-C gd ΔV) Effective voltage change across C gd is ΔV Effective capacitance to ground is twice C gd Including Miller effect: C C C WL (For transistor in Cutoff) gd, p gd, n ox D Amirtharajah/Parkhurst, EEC 8 Spring 0 0

10 CMOS Inverter Capacitances: Receiver Receiver gate capacitance Includes all capacitances of gate(s) connected to output node Unknown region of operation for receiver transistor: total gate cap varies from (/3)WLC ox to WLC ox Ignore Miller effect (taken into account on output) Assume worst-case value, include overlap C WL C + WL g eff ox D C ox C g WL C ox Amirtharajah/Parkhurst, EEC 8 Spring 0

11 Inverter Capacitances: Analysis Simplify the circuit: combine all capacitances at output into one lumped linear capacitance: C load *Cgd,n + *Cgd,p + Cdb,n + Cdb,p + Cint + Cg Miller effect Csb,n Csb,p 0 Cgs,n and Cgs,p are not connected to the load.
