Document Summary
Fanout: the number of load gates n that are connected to the output of the driving gate. Make input resistance of load gate as large as possible. Keep output resistance of the driving gate small. Fan in of a gate is the number of inputs to the gate. Vth is the gate voltage at which channel is. Dc points must be located at the intersection of corresponding load. For a dc operating point, currents through lines. Fast gate is built by keeping output capacitance small or by decreasing on-resistance of the transistor. Vm: switching threshold, defined as the point where vin = vout. Pmos and nmos always saturated since vds = vgs. Increasing width of transistor moves vm towards vdd or gnd. Vih and vil are the operational points of the inverter where the gain g of the amplifier is formed by the inverter, is equal to -1.
