What is C? Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
15
Capacitance Wire MOSFET gate Logical Gate Fanout -- Total gate load
Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
16
First Order Model Switch As dig in, understand:
Loads input capacitively As dig in, understand: Origin of capacitance How can we engineer Tradeoffs Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
17
Logic Gate Input Capacitance
Capacitance on A input? B input? Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
18
Fanout in Circuit Output routed to many gate inputs
Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
19
Fanout in Circuit Maximum fanout? Second? Min?
Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
20
Lumped Capacitive Load

What is R? Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
22
Resistance Wire resistance Transistor equivalent resistance
Supply to transistor source Transistor output gate it is driving Transistor equivalent resistance Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
23
Wire Resistances Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
24
First Order Model Switch As dig in, understand: Resistive driver
More sophisticated view How can we engineer Tradeoffs Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
25
Equivalent Resistance
What resistances might transistors contribute? How many cases? Assume Ron same all tr, Resistance of each? Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
26
Equivalent Resistance
What resistances might transistors contribute? Input Rout 00 Ron/2 01 Ron 10 11 2Ron Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
27
Lumped Resistive Source
Rtrnet = parallel and series combination of Rtr Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon

Measuring Delay Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
29
Measuring Gate Delay Next stage starts to switch before first finishes
Measure 50%--50% 67ps 80ps tdel = 13ps Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
30
Characterizing Gate/Technology
Delay measure will be Function of load on gate Function of input rise time Which, in turn, may be a function of input loading Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
31
Delay vs. Risetime 1ps rise 100ps rise 20ps delay 10ps delay
Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
32
Characterizing Gate/Technology
Delay measure will be Function of load on gate Function of input rise time Which, in turn, may be a function of input loading Want to understand typical At least comparable Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
33
Measuring/Characterizing
Drive with a gate Not an ideal source Measure loaded gate Typical loading – FO4 Penn ESE370 Fall DeHon
