Energy and Power in CMOS Prof. Parker
Fall 01 Lecture 22
Purpose: This demo measures the temperature of a CMOS inverter using a thermocouple
and verifies that the dissipated power is proportional to Vs2 F, where Vs is the supply
voltage, and F is the switching frequency.
The difference between the transistor temperature and room temperature ( 20 degrees ) is
assumed to be proportional to the amount of power being dissipated in transistor.
Steps:
1. With Vs=10 v, F= 2 KHZ, display the input and output waveforms of the CMOS
inverter, on the scope.
2. Switch the display to an overhead camera and showing the circuit and the
multimeter readout of the thermocouple. The temperature should be about 30
degrees ( 10 degrees above ambient). Play the output waveform on a speaker so
that the audience is aware of subsequent changes to Vs ( volume of tone ) and (
pitch of tone ). This is useful for the audience because the display shows the video
camera view rather than the scope screen waveforms.
3. Increase F to 8 KHZ. Ideally, the temperature will rise to 60 degrees ( 40 degrees
above ambient ). You may have to wait a while for the temperature to settle.
4. Decrease Vs to 5 v, ideally, the temperature will drop to 30 degrees ( 10 degrees
above ambient) You may have to wait a while for the temperature to settle.
5. For fun, crank up Vs to 15 v and F to 100 KHZ. The transistor should smoke.
