  8. HOMEWORK 4-8 Design a CMOS inverter circuit: Use the device parameters as folloe: nMOS VT0=0.6V unCox=60uA/V2 pMOS VT0=-0.7V upCox=25uA/V2 The power supply voltage is VDD=3.3V. The channel length of both transistors is Ln=Lp=0.8um. • Determine the (Wn/Wp) ratio so that the switching threshold voltage of the circuit is VTh=1.4V. • The CMOS fabrication process used to manufacture this inverter allows a variation of the VT0,n value by ±15% around its nominal value.
