Methods for distributing power in layout of IC
Abstract:
A method for distributing power in the layout of an integrated circuit is provided. The integrated circuit includes at least one macro block. A first physical layout of the macro block is obtained, wherein the macro block includes a plurality of standard cells. The first physical layout is divided into a plurality of partitions according to an IR simulation result of the first physical layout. A plurality of power isolation cells are inserted between the partitions. A second physical layout is obtained according to the partitions and the power isolation cells. A macro placement of the macro block is obtained according to the second physical layout. Each of the partitions further includes a low drop out (LDO) regulator.
