AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the input cross-over voltage (VIC) for a CMOS inverter using specified parameters for PMOS and NMOS transistors. Participants emphasize the importance of understanding the relevant formulas and principles, such as Kirchhoff's voltage and current laws, to solve the problem effectively. There is a suggestion to refer to textbooks for guidance on the necessary calculations. The conversation highlights the need for foundational knowledge in electronics to tackle such homework problems. Overall, the thread underscores the significance of proper study resources in mastering CMOS inverter calculations.

A CMOS inverter is built using a PMOS transistor with KP = - 0.5 mA/V2 and KN = 1.2 mA/V2. If VDD = 5V, VTN = 1.0V, and VTP = - 1.2V, find the input cross-over voltage VIC.

If i knew which formulas to use i could easily do this... the rest is simply kvl and kcl

I recommend you read your book. If you don't have a book, I recommend you acquire one somehow. Perhaps, you could buy one, rent one, or check one out at a local library.
