	abstract = {<p>This paper presents an analytical model for CMOS delay and power estimation in deep sub micrometer technologies. In this paper the EKV transistor model is considered as a way of granting the accuracy of results in the characterization of deep submicron CMOS circuits. The analytical model proposed is valid for a ramp input signal, and takes into account all the operation regions of the transistor as well the influence of the gate-to-drain capacitance. For estimating the power consumption, a simple numerical integration process is applied to the current wave. An application example considering the use of the model for the evaluation of the delay and power consumption associated to a CMOS inverter is considered. The validity of the results obtained with the proposed model for a 1.2V TSMCN65 CMOS inverter is checked against those obtained through Hspice simulation.</p>
