Transfer function of a system input u output y System
When u(s) = 0, y(s) satisfies: These dynamics are the characteristic dynamics of the system. The roots of the coefficient polynomial are the poles of the system. When y(s) = 0, u(s) satisfies: These dynamics are the zero dynamics of the system. The roots of the coefficient polynomial are the zeros of the system.
Poles of CMOS Inverters Let vin = 0, x = 0, VDD = 0, VSS = 0. CGS1, CGS2, CBS1, CBS2 are all short y CGD1, CGD2, CBD1, CBD2, CL in parallel C’L = Ctotal = CGD1+ CGD2+ CBD1+ CBD2+ CL
Total conductance from y to ground: go = gds1 + gds2 KCL at node y: Therefore system pole is:

If a step input is given, the out put response is In the time domain: Final settling determined by A0 need high gain Settleing speed determined by A0p1=GB, need high gain bandwidth product

Note: If VEB1 and VEB2 are fixed, W1/L1 and W2/L2 must be adjusted proportionally, and they are proportional to DC power.
Therefore: CL constant, but C(W1,W2) proportional to P
