CMOS and complementary logic
• Complementary PMOS and NMOS switches in
parallel or in series with complementary logic to
form high speed, low power logic
• PMOS devices turn on with low voltages, so we
use them in the pull up circuit for a gate
• NMOS devices turn on with high voltages, so we
use them in the pull down circuit for a gate

Pull up/Pull down
Using CMOS, which has
both NMOS and PMOS
transistors, we can build
gates which turn on a
connection to +V when
the output is supposed A
to be high, and another B
connection to ground C
when the output is
supposed to be low.

CMOS logic transitions
• If we look at CMOS with static inputs, it will
pull up high logic levels all the way to the
supply
• Low logic levels are pulled all the way
down to ground.
• We will now look at the behavior of the
circuits as they are switching, which will
determine the performance of the logic

CMOS Inverter
• Since CMOS uses one or more PMOS
devices to pull up, and one or more NMOS
devices to pull down, we can get most of
the dynamics from an inverter.

• Since +V is the sum of the voltage across
the NMOS device and the PMOS device,
we can draw a composite IV plot for the
two devices, showing the current which is
available from each of the two devices.
• On the next slide, notice that when one
device is turned on, and able to provide a
lot of current, the other device is off

For this circuit when VOUT > VOUT-SAT-D the available current
is constant at IOUT-SAT-D and the capacitor discharges.

Switched Equivalent Resistance
Values
The resistor values depend on the properties of silicon,
geometrical layout, design style and technology node.
n-type silicon has a carrier mobility that is 2 to 3 times
higher than p-type.
The resistance is inversely proportion to the gate
width/length in the geometrical layout.
Design styles may restrict all NMOS and PMOS to be of a
predetermined fixed size.
The current per unit width of the gate increases nearly
inversely with the gate width.

Example using resistor model
• Using the resistor model, we can calculate
the approximate rise and fall times for
more complex gates, such as
A BC A B C A( B C )
