Notes on Elmore Delay Calculations for Gate
Simple Assumptions: Source/Drain/Gate Capacitance is proportional to gate width. Transistors in series share source/drains.Transistors in parallel do not share source/drains.
If layout was available, actual capacitances would be extracted from layout.
Three-input Nand Gate
Gate Delay: 3-input NAND Driving 4X Inverter
Gate Delay: Worst case TPHL (fall time), TPLH (rise time)
TPHL
TPLH
Gate Delay: Best case TPHL (fall time), TPLH (rise time)
Best Case TPLH = R/3*(9C+12C) = R/3 * 21C = 7RC
Best Case TPHL = Worst Case TPHL because all transistors in series.
Compute Elmore Delay for the following gate, best/worst TPLH/TPHL
