20100155800 | Creating Integrated Circuit Capacitance from Gate Array Structures - Techniques for using gate arrays to create capacitive structures within an integrated circuit are disclosed. Embodiments comprise placing a gate array of P-type field effect transistors (P-fets) and N-type field effect transistors (N-fets) in an integrated circuit design, coupling drains and sources for one or more P-fets and gates for one or more N-fets to a power supply ground, and coupling gates for the one or more P-fets and the drains and sources for one or more N-fets to a positive voltage of the power supply. In some embodiments, source-to-drain leakage current for capacitive apparatuses of P-fets and N-fets are minimized by biasing one or more P-fets and one or more N-fets to the positive voltage and the ground, respectively. In other embodiments, the capacitive structures may be implemented using fusible elements to isolate the capacitive structures in case of shorts. | 06-24-2010 |
20110072407 | Automatic Positioning of Gate Array Circuits in an Integrated Circuit Design - An automated method and apparatus for positioning gate array circuits in an integrated circuit design. An initial integrated circuit design includes logic cells and gate array fill circuits positioned thereon. The gate array fill circuits are positioned in available space between the adjacent logic cells so as to fill the available space with the maximum gate array fill circuits. A gate array logic element to be positioned in the integrated circuit design, such as may be required by an engineering change to the circuit design, is automatically positioned between adjacent logic cells so as to allow for full utilization of any space remaining between the adjacent logic cells by gate array fill circuits. | 03-24-2011 |
20110113398 | Method and System for Providing Secondary Power Pins in Integrated Circuit Design - An integrated circuit (IC) design with multiple metal layers containing cells requiring secondary power supply. After placing the cells and stripes of a primary power/ground grid in metal layers of the IC design, specific cells are provided with secondary power stripes in a first metal layer. The secondary power stripes are designed in such a way that each secondary power/ground stripe exhibits a full overlap with a stripe of a corresponding primary power/ground grid in a different metal layer. Subsequently, signals from the IC design are routed, and power vias between the primary power/ground grid stripes and the secondary power/ground stripes are generated. | 05-12-2011 |
