In this experiment LS=LD=1um. 2- Save this file as nmos_inv.cir. 3- Double click on the WinSpice icon to open the command window. To run the simulation go to File -> Open -> nmos_inv 4- Which of the above SPICE statements are used to plot the VTC of the inverter

5- Which of the above SPICE statements are used to plot the output voltage waveforrn of the inverter.

6- Open a new Notepad File. Enter the following description of a CMOS Inverter. Body of NMOS is connectedto ground while the body of PMOS is connected to VSUPPLY.

10- Draw the CMOS inverter labeling the nodes labeling the nodes with numbers as designated in the above description

11- Modify the above SPICE file to plot the waveforms of the currents flowing in the PMOS and NMOS. 12- Simulate the ID vs VDS curves of a NMOS using NMOS model described in step-1. Sweep VDS from 0 to 5V. Vary VGS from 0V to 0.7V in steps of 0.1V.Assume L=0.5um W=2um LS=LD=0.75um. 13- The circuit shown below is known as Ring Oscillator Simulate the circuit using the CMOS inverter described in step 6. Perform the transient analysis on the circuit and plot output voltage of the 11th inverter. Also write down the SPICE input file
