In between, Vout depends on current through transistors as determined by transistor width and length By KCL, steady state condition is: Idsn = |Idsp| Find transfer function by solving equations, but better insight using graphical method

Delay Estimation
RC Delay Models
The step response usually looks like a 1st order RC response with a decaying exponential Use RC delay models to estimate delay
C = total capacitance on output node Use effective resistance R so that t pd = RC
Characterize transistors by finding their effective R depends on average current as gate switches

Sub-Threshold in MOS
Recent years have seen an acceleration in supply voltage reduction Design at very low voltages (0.6 0.9 V by 2010!) Maintaining performance by threshold scaling leads to increased leakage
