DELAY DEFINITIONS
tpdr: rising propagation delay
From input to rising output
crossing VDD/2
tpdf: falling propagation delay
From input to falling output
crossing VDD/2
tpd: average propagation delay
tpd = (tpdr + tpdf)/2
tr: rise time
From output crossing 0.2 VDD
to 0.8 VDD
tf: fall time
From output crossing 0.8 VDD
to 0.2 VDD

tr is essentially governed by the pull-up conductance and by the load capacitance CL
FALL TIME OF A
RESISTIVE LOAD INVERTER
Fall Time
Fall time is affected by all 3 devices including the pull-down
The non linear behavior of the MOSFET requires piecewise linear
calculation of the solution by solving the relevant differential equation
with appropriate boundary conditions.
Instead Shockley model uses average current and plugs it into

Half the energy from VDD is dissipated in the pMOS transistor as
heat, other half stored in capacitor
When the inverter output falls
Energy in capacitor is dumped to GND
