hello all,
I want to design 555 timer, ie tlc555 internal circuit. I have internal circuit from data sheet and now to find w/l ratios for each mosfet.
I need help on how to go about it, like what parameter to consider.I am attaching data sheet with this post so that you can have a look at circuit diagram(cmos).


-and any answers for why pmos is used for voltage divider circuit and why not nmos?
-what happens if i build this voltage divider circuit using nmos?
-vdd varies from 2v to 15v, how does this circuit take care of minimum 2v supply?



Note: I am planning to implement this circuit in .35u tsmc technology.
