Transistor sizing W/L | CMOS | VLSI CMOS by VLSI Universe - April 23, 2020July 21, 20210 The sizing of the transistor can be done using RC delay approximation. The RC Delay Model helps in delay estimation CMOS circuit. The RC delay model treats the non-linear transistor current-voltage I-V and capacitor voltage C-V characteristics with their equivalent resistance and capacitance model. This RC delay model approximates a transistor as a switch with a series of resistance or effective resistance R (Which is the ratio of the average value of Vds to Ids). The size of a unit transistor is approximated as 4/2 lambda. The RC circuit equivalent models for the PMOS and NMOS transistors are shown below. Here the k width of both PMOS and NMOS transistors is contacted to Source S and drain D. Since the holes in
