3 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 3 The CMOS inverter – recall V DD GND OUT IN n p V DD GND OUT=0 IN=1 V DD GND OUT=1 IN=0 In steady-state only on transistor is "on", the other one is always "off"

4 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 4 2 situations depending on the threshold voltage of the transistors 1. small supply voltage: V DD < V Tn + |V Tp | only one transistor is "on" at a time 2. larger supply voltage V DD > V Tn + |V Tp | when switching over, both transistors are "on" at the same time U IN U V Tn V V Tp V DD V pMOS is "on" 0 0 nMOS is "on" pMOS is V Tp "on" nMOS is "on" Characteristic of the CMOS inverter

5 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 5 Characteristic of the CMOS inverter ► 1. small supply voltage: V DD < V Tn + |V Tp | a karakterisztika: = DD OUT V U < TnBE VUif............... -<< TpDDBETn VVUVifindefinit.... -< TpDDBE VVUif.......................... 0 U IN V Tn V DD -V-V Tp V DD V U OUT Indefinit V DD U IN V DD -V-V Tp V DD U OUT V Tn The middle part of the transfer characteristic is very steep, this the specific advantage of CMOS inverters.

7 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 7 Design for symmetrical operation: If U IN =U inv logic threshold voltage, both transistors have equal current: U GSp =V DD -U K U GSn =U K The CMOS inverter The inverter logic threshold voltage depends on the ratio of the current constants of the transistors. To have U inv at V DD /2 and V Tn =|V Tp |, then K n =K p has to be set. since hole mobility is 2... 2.5 times less The logic threshold voltage can be set by the W/L ratios 22 )()( TpinvDDpTninvn VUUKVUK  pn pnTnTpDD inv KK KKVVU U /1 /   

8 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 8 The CMOS inverter / dynamic char. ► Calculation of the switching times  What do they depend on? the current driving capability of the output the capacitive load on the output ► If the characteristics of the two transistors are exactly complementary (K n =K p and V Tn =|V Tp |), rising and falling times will be equal

9 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 9 The capacitnces ► Intrinsic capacitances of the driving stage ► Input capacitance of the loading stage (next gate) – extrinsic or fanout capacitances ► wiring (interconnect) capacitance V out1 V in M2M2 M1M1 M4M4 M3M3 V out2 C DB2 C DB1 C GD12 intrinsic MOS transistor capacitances C G4 C G3 extrinsic MOS transistor (fanout) capacitances CwCw wiring (interconnect) capacitance

10 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 10 The capacitnces ► The intrinsic capacitances:  S-G G-D overlap capacitances  the MOS capacitance of the channel  capacitances of pn junctions ► The wiring capacitance  depends on the interconnect geometry (width, length)  with the advance of manufacturing processes this capacitance tends to increase See later

11 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 11 The CMOS inverter / dynamic char. ► Calculation of switching times  identical times, integration for the extreme values of the voltage of the load capacitance: V LM – minimal voltage of the load capacitance  If then Can be reduced by increasing the supply voltage or the W/L ratio

12 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 12 Power consumption of CMOS inv.: ► There is no static consumption since there is no static current ► There is dynamic consumption during switching which consists of 2 parts:  Mutual conduction: During the rise of the input voltage both transistors are "on" V Tn <U IN <V DD -V Tp  Charge pumping: At switching over the output to 1 the C L loading capacitor is charged to the supply voltage through the p transistor, then it is discharged towards the ground through the n transistor. Charge is pumped from VDD to GND.

13 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 13 Power consumption of CMOS inv.: ► Mutual conduction ("short power"): During a certain period of the rise of the input signal both transistors are "on" if V Tn <U IN <V DD -V Tp this is called mutual conduction charge flowing through:, where t UD is the time while current is flowing, b is a constant depending on the signal shape. b  0.1-0.2 P ~ f V DD 3

14 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 14 Power consumption of CMOS inv.: ► Charge pumping: At switching the C L load capacitance is charged to VDD through the p-channel device when the output changes to 1, later, when switching the output to 0, it is discharged towards GND through the n-channel device. P cp =f C L V DD 2 The power consumption due to charge pumping is proportional to the frequency and the square of the supply voltage. ► Total consumption: sum of the two components (if there is mutual conduction), directly proportional to the frequency and the 2 nd and 3 rd power of the supply voltage.

15 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 15 Components of the consumption of CMOS circuits ► Dynamic components – at every switching event  mutual conduction, charge pumping  proportional to the the event density clock frequency circuit activity ► Further components due to parasitics:  subthreshold currents  leakage currents of pn junctions – nowadays already significant  leakage (tunneling) through the a gate dielectric

17 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 17  combination of these: complex gate CMOS gates ► Create an nMOS switching curcuit (pull down network): ► switches: nMOS transistors ► Load: the dual circuit of the nMOS network: pMOS network  series path: NAND function  paralel path: NOR function

18 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 18 ► In a CMOS inverter both transistors are actively controlled ► In case of gates there will be a PUN (pull up network: pMOS circuit) and a PDN (pull down network: nMOS circuit). The number of transistors both in PUN and PDN is equal to the number of inputs of the gate  For input combinations where the output is 0, the PDN realizes a short towards GND and the PUN is an open circuit;  if the output function is equal to 1, the PDN will be an open circuit and the PUN realizes a short towards VDD. Circuits with dual topology should be realized from n and p channel transistors ► Gates of transistors receiving the same signal are connected CMOS gates

19 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 19 CMOS gates ► NOR gate ► NAND gate For an n input CMOS gate 2n transistors are needed (passive load gates need only n+1 transistors)

20 Budapest University of Technology and Economics Department of Electron Devices 13-11-2008 CMOS circuits © András Poppe, BME-EET 2008 20 Construction complex CMOS gates ► dual topology (loop  cut, cut  loop) ► dual components: nMOS replaced by pMOS ► transistor gates corresponding to the same signal must be connected ► proper sizing of the W/L ratios (e/h mobility mismatch)
