SDLUTIDI1 The part name for a three-terminal PMOS transistor is Mbreakp3. Draw the circuit below. The model of the PMOS transistor has been changed from Mbreakp to Mp and the model of the NMOS transistor has been changed from Mbreakn to Mn ... 

EXEHCISE 1-3 In EXERCI5E 1-7 we looked at the operation of a CMOS inverter. We will now investigate how the (W/L) ratio of the PMOS transistor affects the transfer curve of the inverter. Let the (W/L) ratio of the PMOS transistor have values 1, 3, 6,9, 12, and 15. 

QLUTIQI1 Starting with the circuit of EXERCI5E 1-7, let the W value of the PMOS transistor be set by the parameter Wp val. Also, add the PARAM part ... 

I n-well ( tub Jetructuro contains PMOS transistors. J - n-type channel stop for n-wel I i nira-weti J) and inter-well (J ) field insolation. 

The twin-well process is typically the first step in CMOS wafer fabrication and is used to define the active regions of the nMOS and pMOS transistors. A twin well consists of a p-well and an n-well, with each well requiring some number of steps to fabricate. The twin-well process thus consists of two processes n-well formation and p-well formation.

Figure 8.21 illustrates a gate array in various levels of detail and possible interconnections within a cell. The floor plan of Fig. 8.21(a) shows that there are 10 columns of cells with 10 cells per column, for a total of 100 cells in the chip. The cell layout of Fig. 8.21(b) shows that there are 4 NMOS and 4 PMOS transistors per cell. Thus there are a total of 800 transistors in the chip. The transistor channels are under the polysiUcon and inside the diffusion areas. Figure 8.21(c) shows the cell layout with interconnection to form an NAND gate, whereas Fig. 8.21(d) shows the circuit equivalent of a cell.
