SIMULATION OF CMOS INVERTER USING PSPICE

Aim:

To obtain the transfer characteristics of CMOS inverter using PSPICE.

Software Used:

ORCAD PSPICE AD.

Theory:

A CMOS inverter is realized by the series connection of a p-mos and n-mos device. Figure shows inverter and we use PSPICE to compute its voltage transfer characteristics. A sweep of the input voltage level is performed between ground and VDD. The output voltage of this gate extends completely between the limits of the two power supply levels. It is an important attribute of CMOS logic that the transistors do not conduct any current when settled into a particular logic state. Because the mobility for the n-channel is about 3 times greater than the p-channel. The dc characteristic is the plot of output voltage Vout as a function of inverter input voltage Vin.
