摘要:
A ratio asymmetric inverter has a signal input, signal output, first and second power inputs, pullup and pulldown transistors, and at least one delay element. The pullup transistor has a gate terminal, a source terminal coupled to the first power input, and a drain terminal coupled to the signal output. The pulldown transistor has a gate terminal, a drain terminal coupled to the signal output, and a source terminal coupled to the second power input. The signal input is respectively coupled to the gate terminals of the pullup transistor and the pulldown transistor via first and second signal paths. The at least one delay element is included in only one of the first and second signal paths, to impart a longer propagation delay to the one of the first and second signal paths.
