Consider an n-channel MOSFET having width W, length L, electron mobility in the channel
$$\mu_n$$ and oxide capacitance per unit area $$C_{ox}$$. If gate-to-source voltage VGS=0.7 V, drain-to source
voltage VDS=0.1V, $$\left(\mu_nC_{ox}\right)\;=\;100\;\mu A/V^2$$, threshold voltage VTH=0.3 V and (W/L) = 50,
then the transconductance gm (in mA/V) is ___________.

An n-channel enhancement mode MOSFET is biased at VGS > VTH and VDS > (VGS - VTH), where
VGS is the gate-to-source voltage, VDS is the drain-to-source voltage and VTH is the threshold
voltage. Considering channel length modulation effect to be significant, the MOSFET behaves
as a

Transistor geometries in a CMOS inverter have been adjusted to meet the requirement for
worst case charge and discharge times for driving a load capacitor C. This design is to be
converted to that of a NOR circuit in the same technology, so that its worst case charge and
discharge times while driving the same capacitor are similar. The channel lengths of all
transistors are to be kept unchanged. Which one of the following statements is correct?
