  • Abstract
    A generalized tanh law model is proposed to simulate the current-voltage characteristics of both long-channel and short-channel MOS transistors. The proposed model is used to calculate the propagation delay, short-circuit power dissipation, and logic threshold voltage of CMOS inverters. The results obtained are in good agreement with those obtained using classical models
