Which is the internal electronic circuit of a logic gate?How is possible to integrate millions of transistors into a single chip?
([2]) / Mixed signal integrated circuit which includes a built-in sensor for DIDDQ testing and a standard cell DSP with 250000 transistors as Circuit Under Test.Technology: CMOS 0.18 m, size: 0.9 mm2
Designed by DEE engineers and fabricated by Philips
DIDDQ testing is a method able to detect defects producing small increases in leakage current on top of high background

a)Explain how the CMOS[3] logic gates[4]represented in Fig. 2work. And determine which their equivalent logic symbols are. Invent a CMOS circuit for the tri-state inverter in Fig. 2d

Fig. 2 Some internal circuitry for CMOS logic gates
Circuit shown Fig. 3 represents the internal structure of the chip MC14560 as presented by Motorola in its datasheet. Let us to use it for understanding concepts as: power dissipation; number of gate levels and transmission delays; transfer function and voltage levels; timing diagrams (a graphical representation that shows the propagation of the signals as a function of time); and other important electrical characteristics of digital circuits.
b)Find the chip datasheet somewhere in the internet and print only the 2 or 3 most significative pages which contain the circuit description and electrical characteristics. Explain the chip’s features in half a sheet.
c)With respect to the output S1, analyse the internal circuit in Fig. 3: deduce the algebraic equation, apply Boole Algebra, and obtain its truth table as a function of B1, A1 and Cin (nothing new but copyingthe same EX2’s methodology).
d)Deduce the timing diagram when applying the waveforms of Fig. 4 (evidently applying results from above).
e)Redesign the function S1 = f(B1, A1, Cin) and implement a 3 level-of-gates circuit (for instance, only NAND, only NOR, NOT-AND-OR, or NOT-OR-AND)
f)Simulate both, the circuit for S1 in Fig. 3 and the one designed in e) and compare if they both have the same truth table.
g)Apply an up-to-the-limit square waveform to determine through a graphical digital simulation the maximum frequency of operation for the S1 function in both circuits (the one in Fig. 3 and the one designed in e)).
h)Find in the internet another datasheet of a logic gate of the same CMOS 4000B family (for example the hex 4069UB inverter) and obtain the characteristics of a single gate of this technology when powered at VCC = 5V and VCC = 15V: quiescent current IDD, propagation delay time tPLH and tPHL, input voltage VIH and VIL, output voltage VOH and VOL.
i)Draw the input-output transfer function and obtain the noise margins for both supply voltages: 5V and 15V.
j)Determine the static power consumption of the MC14560 circuit represented in Fig. 3 for both supply voltages: 5V and 15V.
k)Deduce the number of gate levels of each output function of the chip: S1, S2, S3, S4, COUT
l)Using values from k)calculate the maximum frequency of operation for both supply voltages: 5V and 15V for the MC14560 chip.
m)If such an integrated circuit, the MC14560, is employed as a building block for the design of a 4-bit BCD adder and subtractor, calculate its maximum frequency of operation.

And, what to do, when a chip is no longer available in the market?
n)(demonstrative) The MC14560 is obsolete, thus, it is not manufactured and can not be found in the marketplace. Implement the MC14560 chip functionality into a simple programmable logic device (sPLD) GAL22V10 like the one partially reproduced in Fig. 6. See Units 1.14 and 1.15.
o)(demonstrative) Implement the MC14560 chip functionality into a ROM memory. See Unit 2.11.
