Introduction
This lab is to build the layout of a full adder using PMOS and NMOS transisters and verfiy with simulation. The full adder is composed of premade XOR, NAND, NOR, and inverter gates.

Discussion
All logic for each gate performed as expected. The full adder was composed of "longer" gate layouts (i.e., the NAND gate layout was extended such that it is the same height as the XOR layout).
