nr2 standard cell family

 2-I/P NOR gate
nr2 symbol
nr2 effort graph The fastest speed occurs when the shape factor r=√( KP÷ KN×µ). For a 2-NOR gate, we use KP=15/8; KN=1, and µ=9/4, which gives r=√(135/32)≈2. This value has been used for the v1 version, which are fast with unbalanced output skews. The P/N ratio has been kept as close to 2 as possible for the v0 version in order to give more balanced output skews, even if this is not the fastest configuration.
The effort measured by the fanout=4 method is shown in the graph on the right, which shows that the v1 cells are generally faster than the v0 cells. The variations are caused by the parasitic capacitances.
