Prelab:

The prelab required us to back up all of our course work as usual, so i did this on my student drive. It was also required for us to go through Tutorial 5, and to read the entire lab before starting it.

Lab Report:

 

Inverter:

I created an inverter using an NMOS and a PMOS, then a simple symbol was made for it. To create an equivalent, more concise schematic I used and array name of IO<3:0>. Thejn I connected a bus to the input and output pins of the inverter from which we learned how to do in the tutorial.

Now that I had the symbol for my inverter I created the simulation schematic below. All four of the inputs are tied together to an input pulse source while the outputs are connected to different capacitors. Simulating the schematic gave me the waveforms below.

NAND:

The same process was made for a NAND gate as was done with the inverter. The only difference is that the process had to be done with an 8-bit input/output NAND gate.

NOR:

The same process was made for a NOR gate as was done with the NAND gate.

2-to-1 DEMUX/MUX:

The same as above was required for a 2-to-1 DEMUX/MUX and an 8-bit DEMUX/MUX. The schematics were created first, followed by a simple symbol and then a simulation schematic to make sure it functions properly.

8-bit
DEMUX/MUX:

In order for the concise schematic to be made for the 8-bit DEMUX/MUX an inverter had to be placed so the cell only needs one select input. This allows 2 inputs, S and Si, one of them is generated by the inverter.

DEMUX/MUX:

The circuit can be used for both multiplexing and demultiplexing. This can be done since it is basically the same process just reversed. For the MUX we have two inputs and for the DEMUX we have 2 outputs which should have been the inputs on the MUX.
