How does logic 1 get passed through an NMOS pass transistor?
I'm studying pass transistors. One thing I came across in several of the books is that when an NMOS has a logic state HIGH and the input terminal (the schematic below) is also HIGH, the output ...

Deriving the NOT logic gate using PMOS logic
I recently started learning about Field Effect Transistors (FET's) and about the MOS circuit family. From my understanding NMOS is made from a p-type substrate and n-type source/drain, whereas the ...

Semiconductor-level genetic programming
I was reading an old article about Adrian Thompson's work on using genetic programming to generate circuit solutions for simple tasks such as frequency differentiation.
This got me wondering: every ...

Why doesn't a capacitor connected to a MOSFET charge to VDD
If an nmos which has the gate and drain connected to VDD, and the source connected to a grounded capacitor, the nmos will start conducting and the capacitor will start charging as long as VDD > VTn (...

What is the main Computer Memory Addressing Mechanism for Semi-Conductor Memory? [duplicate]
Most semiconductor memory is organized into memory cells or bistable flip-flops, each storing one bit (0 or 1).
How exactly are the needed '1's or '0's taken from Memory? What mechanism or algorithm?
