Designing and simulating a NAND gate
Circuit LayoutUsing the values taken from the simulation the layout looks like this: ![]() This straight design contains two parallel PMOS transistors sharing the output terminal and two series NMOS transistors having the two gates across the same p-area. When simulating this circuit you get transistion times like this: ![]() The worst case high to low transition takes 266ps and the worst case low to high transistion takes 256ps. This is better than needed. |
