NMOS PLA is a Programmable Logic Array which is designed by employing NMOS technology i.e. by employing nmos transistors to realize the required gates of PLA.

PLA is a combination AND gates and OR gates to produced sum of products terms needed for realizing the required combinational logic. It consists of an array of AND gates followed by OR plane. the connections to the AND and OR inputs can be programmed based on our needs.

What are the advantages of PMOS and NMOS?

* reduce the complexity of the circuit* low static power consumption* high noise immunity* high density of logic function on a chipThe most important advantage of CMOS is the very low static power consumption in compare with NMOS technology. On the other hand, CMOS technology is more complex to fabricate then NMOS technology, so it is more expensive. However, almost every todays digital circuits are CMOS. You want to use NMOS only when you want to fabricate fast and low-cost a simple circuit. The most important advantage of CMOS is the very low static power consumption in compare with NMOS technology.

What type of doping have the drain and the source of a PMOS transistor?

PMOS - (drain + source) = p-type doping NMOS - (drain + source) = n-type doping :)


What is the function of the pla relay?

Plogrammable logic array is the set of instructions which makes and breaks the circuit.


Why CMOS connected to VDD and NMOS to Vcc?

Error on schematic. All MOS is powered by Vdd and/or Vss (drain/source). Only bipolar is powered by Vcc and/or Vee (collector/emitter).


Why is the substrate in nmos connected to ground and in pmos to vdd?

we try to reverse bias not the channel and substrate but we try to maintain the source,drain junctions reversed biased with respect to the substrate so that we dont loose our current in the substrate.

What is the use of pseudo nMOS gates in digital design?

These circuits use nMOS for implementation of a whole gate + one pMOS which is connected between positive supply and nMOS.


What are the differences between nmos and pmos transistors?

NMOS is built with n-type source and drain and a p-type substrate, while PMOS is built with p-type source and drain and a n-type substrate. In a NMOS, carriers are electrons, while in a PMOS, carriers are holes. When a high voltage is applied to the gate, NMOS will conduct, while PMOS will not. Furthermore, when a low voltage is applied in the gate, NMOS will not conduct and PMOS will conduct. NMOS are considered to be faster than PMOS, since the carriers in NMOS, which are electrons, travel twice as fast as holes, which are the carriers in PMOS. But PMOS devices are more immune to noise than NMOS devices. Furthermore, NMOS ICs would be smaller than PMOS ICs (that give the same functionality), since the NMOS can provide one-half of the impedance provided by a PMOS (which has the same geometry and operating conditions).
