In this paper we present a generic methodology for the rapid generation and implementation of standard cell libraries for differential circuit design styles. We demonstrate a systematic approach for the classification of circuit topologies (footprints) and for generating the templates that correspond to a large number of functions. The generation of an extensive cell library with more than 4500 standard cells based on 19 footprints is demonstrated using a 180 nm CMOS technology.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
