Abstract:Timberwolf placement and routing, the use of over-the-cell routing, an expanded library of compound cells and the introduction of techniques for controlling clock line current density have combined to allow the SYMCELL symbolic standard cell system to produce combined high density and high speed results in a technology-insensitive methodology.Densities achieved are significantly higher than with comparable systems, and channel heights are close to row heights.
