Hi
An inverter with minimum channel length(L=65nm) in tsmc 65nm LP process is designed. The recommended supply voltage of the inverter from tsmc is 1.2V.
(1) If the inverter is used as a static inverter, could the supply voltage vdd be more than 2.5V?
(2) IF the inverter is used as an clk buffer (Fclk=80MHz0), could the supply voltage vdd be more than 2.5V?
I have reversed an third party chip. In the chip, there is some inverters designed with minimum length(L=65nm), but the supply voltage of these inverter should be more than 2.5V by circuit analysis. Can this be reasonable?
Thanks .
