Click For Summary
In CMOS inverters, $V_i=L$ indicates that the input voltage is approximately at ground level, while $V_i=H$ signifies that the input voltage is close to the supply voltage, $V_{dd}$. This distinction is crucial for understanding the inverter's function as a logical NOT gate. The inverter operates by switching its output based on these input voltage levels. Overall, these voltage levels are fundamental to the operation of CMOS technology.

Hello.
Can someone explain to me what does $V_i=L$ and $V_i=H$ mean in CMOS inverters?

Thank you so much!
 
Thread 'Erroneously  finding discrepancy in transpose rule'
Obviously, there is something elementary I am missing here. To form the transpose of a matrix, one exchanges rows and columns, so the transpose of a scalar, considered as (or isomorphic to) a one-entry matrix, should stay the same, including if the scalar is a complex number. On the other hand, in the isomorphism between the complex plane and the real plane, a complex number a+bi corresponds to a matrix in the real plane; taking the transpose we get which then corresponds to a-bi...
