ECE212_INV3

As Wp increases which statement(s) is(are) true?

• tpLH increases

• tpLH decreases

• tpHL increases

• tpHL decreases

The minimum delay of a CMOS inverter is when beta is equal to

• r

• sqrt(r)

• r squared

• 2r

Usually, the highest power consumption component of a CMOS inverter is

• dynamic

• static

• short circuit

Dynamic power consumption can be reduced by:

• increasing the supply voltage

• decreasing the supply voltage

• increasing the frequency

• decreasing the frequency

Increasing the supply voltage to the CMOS inverter

• always increases its delay

• always decreases its delay

• always decreases its power consumption

• always increases its energy delay product
