Characterization of the CD4007 Transistor Array

    

    1. ID v. VGS (0 < VGS < 3 V) with VDS = 3 V 
    2. ID v. VDS (0 < VDS < 5 V) for VGS varying from 1 to 5 V in 1 V steps, and 
    3. ID v. VGS (0 < VGS < 5 V) with VDS = 5 V for VSB varying from 0 to 3 V in 1 V steps.

http://cmosedu.com/jbaker/courses/ee420L/s15/students/thomad1/Lab8/vbs.PNGDue to limitations in the measuring equipment of teh TBE350lab and operation hours of the lab, we could not obtain measurements for the body effect of the PMOS transistor. Therefore the gamma for teh PMOS in the calculations is an approximation based off teh SPICE simulation from my input paramters.

 

The calculations for my paramters are as follows

http://cmosedu.com/jbaker/courses/ee420L/s15/students/thomad1/Lab8/calc.PNG


Kp = (2 x ID)/(VDSsat^2 x W/L)
Gamma = d(VTH)/d(VBS)


Using the Calculations above and our collected data:  I obtained the following paramters:
Vtop = 1.5V   Vton = 1.2V   Tox = 1.76 x 10^-8
Kpp = 10       Kpn = 14.8    
Gamma for Pmos is approximately 0.5
Gamma for Nmos is apporxiamtel 1

Below is the adjusted SPICE model initially created with the above parameters but then adjusted to match plots

Measurement of the Inverter rise/fall time is below

The inverter circuit was provided by the datasheet of the chip

and it was measured to be approimately 20 nanoseconds
