DC Response
DC Response: Vout vs. Vin for a gate
Ex: Inverter
– When Vin = 0 -> Vout = VDD
– When Vin = VDD -> Vout = 0
VDD
– In between, Vout depends on
transistor size and current Idsp
Vin Vout
– By KCL, must settle such that Idsn
Idsn = |Idsp|
– We could solve equations
– But graphical solution gives more insight
