CMOS technology has dominated the IC business for the last 25 years and will continue to do so for another 25 years, according to the author of CMOS Circuit Design, Layout, and Simulation. He explains ...
Fig 1. A typical CMOS input circuit comprises a “P” and “N” transistor. One is fully “on” for logic high, and the other is “on” for a logic low. Fig 2. When a CMOS input pin is at logic high or low ...
When a CMOS circuit is in an idle state there is still some static power dissipation–a result of leakage current through nominally off transistors. Both nMOS and pMOS transistors used in CMOS logic ...
In this paper, the authors propose a MOS-BJT-NDR circuit, which can show the Negative-Differential-Resistance (NDR) characteristic in its current-voltage curve. This NDR circuit is composed of ...
Recent advances in terahertz technology are significantly expanding the horizon of high-speed, high-frequency electronic and photonic systems. Positioned between microwave electronics and infrared ...
Analog IPs are developed to meet a set of specific requirements, and to change its specifications for a different application, a significant amount of time and effort may have to be applied on ...
New technical paper titled “Bridging the Gap between Design and Simulation of Low-Voltage CMOS Circuits” from researchers at Federal University of Santa Catarina, Brazil. “This work proposes a truly ...
Given the growing importance and impact of portable, battery-operated devices in today’s society, it’s easy to understand why power consumption has become such a critical factor in IC design. But it’s ...
If you leave signals applied to the inputs of a CMOS chip with the power turned off, the chip might explode when you re-apply power. This is called latchup. Similarly, if you drag the outputs of a ...
