2. What does the `output’ of a CMOS gate `look like’ during switching?
Resistor, R ∝ L/W
3. Usually hole mobility is half of electron mobility. So what must you do to
make the pull up and pull down delays about the same?
Equalize RC constants, Wp/Wn = µn/µp

Summary
• What dimensions determines the “drive strength” of a transistor?
Transistor width/length
Summary
z Complementary MOS transistors gives dense circuits and
lower power than other circuit families
z Standard Cell designs use Static CMOS
z Transistor speed approximated using `on resistance’
z Ron proportional to electron/hole mobility and W/L
Hole mobility = half electron mobility
