Pre-Lab


Finish Tutorial 2

Copy Tutorial 1 into Tutorial 2 and make sure to select Updated Instances so the library can be independant.

Next Create a Cell View Named NMOS_IV_3

Open the shematic then press i to instantiate a transistor:

settings


It will look like this

Add Pins to it:

Go to Create then Create Symbol -> Cell View -> Create from Cell View

t


Delete everything except the 3 Pins

Select everything and press q to view properties

Draw the symbol to look like a transistor

We will then add vdc to set it up for sim

sim



Go to launch ADE L and load these settings for sim.

sim settings


We run the sim to get the output

Next we can layout a nmos by creating a layout view for NMOS_IV_3  and adding an instance with the length of 6u and width of 0.6u along with a ptap.

nmos layout


We can add m_Ppoly cell ato connect the poly rectangle from NMOS to it. Then we can add metal 1 connections to it.

Once this is done we can extract our layout to see the value.

PMOS

Now we repeat similar steps but this time for pmos

pmos schem


Create layout of PMOS using a pmos cell and ntap, then you can extract the layout and get this view.
