This
lab demonstrates how to layout, using Virtuoso, NMOS and PMOS devices
using ON's C5 process, as well as how to determine the devices' IV
characteristics using the Spectre simultor.
Prelab
Tutorial 2
was followed in order to create the schematics, symbols and layouts for
the PMOS and NMOS devices that will be used throughout the lab.

Lab Work
- Generate 4 schematics and simulations (see the examples in the Ch6_IC61 library, but note that for the PMOS body should be at vdd! instead of gnd!):
- A schematic for simulating ID
v. VDS of an NMOS device for VGS varying from 0 to 5 V in 1 V steps
while VDS varies from 0 to 5 V in 1 mV steps. Use a 6u/600n
width-to-length ratio

Simulation
Figure 9: ID vs VDS Simulation Results - A
schematic for simulating ID v. VGS of an NMOS device for VDS = 100 mV
where VGS varies from 0 to 2 V in 1 mV steps. Again use a 6u/600n
width-to-length ratio.

schematic for simulating ID v. VSD (note VSD not VDS) of a PMOS device

from 0 to 5 V in 1 mV steps. Use a 12u/600n width-to-length ratio.

Figure 18: ID vs VSG Simulation Results - Lay
out a 6u/0.6u NMOS device and connect all 4 MOSFET terminals to probe
pads (which can be considerably smaller than bond pads [see MOSIS design rules] and directly adjacent to the MOSFET (so the layout is relative small).
