2. NMOS
DEFINITION:
An n-channel metal-oxide semiconductor (nMOS) transistor is
one in which n-type dopants are used in the gate region (the "channel").
A positive voltage on the gate turns the device on.
4. NMOS WORKING
NMOS is built on a p-type substrate with n-type source and drain diffused
on it. In NMOS, the majority of carriers are electrons. When a high
voltage is applied to the gate, the NMOS will conduct. Similarly, when a
low voltage is applied to the gate, NMOS will not conduct. NMOS is
considered to be faster than PMOS, since the carriers in NMOS, which
are electrons, travel twice as fast as the holes.
5. PMOS
DEFINITION:
A p-channel metal-oxide semiconductor (pMOS)
transistor is one in which p-type dopants are used in the gate region (the
"channel"). A negative voltage on the gate turns the device on.
6. PMOS WORKING
P- channel MOSFET consists of P-type Source and Drain diffused on an
N-type substrate. The majority of carriers are holes. When a high voltage
is applied to the gate, the PMOS will not conduct. When a low voltage is
applied to the gate, the PMOS will conduct. The PMOS devices are more
immune to noise than NMOS devices.
10. CMOS INVERTER
In CMOS technology, both N-type and P-type transistors are used to
design logic functions. The same signal which turns ON a transistor of
one type is used to turn OFF a transistor of the other type. This
characteristic allows the design of logic devices using only simple
switches, without the need for a pull-up resistor.
In CMOS logic gates a collection of n-type MOSFETs is arranged
in a pull-down network between the output and the low voltage
power supply rail (Vss or quite often ground). Instead of the load
resistor of NMOS logic gates, CMOS logic gates have a collection
of p-type MOSFETs in a pull-up network between the output and
the higher-voltage rail (often named Vdd).
