Can someone give me the underlying theory to create (i.e., size and bias) a delay cell (a total of 4 delay cells in the ring oscillator). I am using 0.18um technology and I don't know what an appropriate bias current is for the cell, I don't know how to set output swing. I want to design for an fo of 2GHz.
In the diagram VDD = 1.8V. Based on my understanding M3 and M4 are biased such that they are always in triode, ie., act a resistive load, but I don't know how to bias or size these.
I'd really appreciate if someone could help me gain a better understanding of the topic and possibly help me out.
