AIM: Find the delays in CMOS inverter circuit.

CMOS inverters (Complementary MOSFET Inverters) are some of the most


widely used and adaptable MOSFET inverters used in chip design. They
operate with very little power loss and at relatively high speed.
A CMOS inverter contains a PMOS and a NMOS transistor connected at the
drain and gate terminals, a supply voltage VDD at the PMOS source terminal,
and a ground connected at the NMOS source terminal, where Vin is
connected to the gate terminals and Vout is connected to the drain
terminals.
The circuit below is the simplest CMOS logic gate.
When a low voltage (0 V) is applied at the input, the top transistor (P-type)
is conducting (switch closed) while the bottom transistor behaves like an
open circuit.
Therefore, the supply voltage (5 V) appears at the output.
Conversely, when a high voltage (5 V) is applied at the input, the bottom
transistor (N-type) is conducting (switch closed) while the top transistor
behaves like an open circuit.
Hence, the output voltage is low (0 V).
The function of this gate can be summarized by the following table:
Input Output
High Low
Low High
The output is the opposite of the input - this gate inverts the input.
