How do you size NMOS and PMOS transistors to increase the
threshold voltage?

Answer Posted / senthil nath

I believe the question is how size NMOS/PMOS to increase the
threshold voltage of inverter? The Vt of a transistor cannot
be altered by changing it's Width or length as per my
understanding. Correct me if I am wrong.

So for the inverter, increasing PMOS width increases Vt of
inverter and increasing NMOS width decreases Vt of inverter.
