The mobility of hole is 0.4 times the mobility of electron. What must be the ratio of width of n-channel to p-channel MOSFET if they are to have equal drain currents when operated in saturation mode with same magnitude of overdrive voltage:

The circuit shown uses an NMOS transistor to implement a current source. For the transistor VTN = 1V and =12.5 uA/V2. The required value of VGS to get IDC = 25 μA and corresponding compliance voltage is:
2 = (VGS - 1)2‑
VGS = √2 + 1 = 2.414 V
To function as a current source, the transistor must be in saturation or VDS > VDS (sat).
VDS (sat) = VGS - VTN
= 2.414 – 1
= 1.414.
Hence compliance voltage = 1.414 V.
Compliance voltage is the minimum voltage required to achieve the desired performance.

Given gate plate area, which is also MOS capacitor area A = 0.5 × 10-2cm2
Oxide layer thickness tox = 80 nm
