3.3 INTRODUCTION TO CMOS TERMINOLOGY AND SYMBOLOGY
Complementary MOSFET (CMOS) switching circuits are composed of n-type MOSFETs
(NMOS for short) and p-type MOSFETs (PMOS). As a help in reading and constructing
CMOS switching circuits, the simplified symbols and ideal equivalent circuits for both
types are given in Fig. 3.4. Thus, for either, the OFF condition is always an open circuit
while the ON condition is always a short circuit. But the voltage levels causing the ON and
OFF conditions for NMOS and PMOS are opposite; ...
