    Abstract: An integrated circuit is provided. The integrated circuit includes a first cell that has a first height and is arranged in a first row which extends in a first direction; a second cell that has a second height and is arranged in a second row which extends in the first direction and is adjacent to the first row, wherein the second cell is adjacent to the first cell in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction; and a power line that extends in the first direction, is arranged on a boundary between the first cell and the second cell, and is configured to supply power to the first cell and the second cell. The first cell overlaps a first width of the power line along the second direction and the second cell overlaps a second width of the power line along the second direction, and the first width and the second width are different from each other.

    Abstract: Integrated circuits including abutted blocks and methods of designing layouts of the integrated circuits are disclosed. The integrated circuit includes a first block having a first function cell array therein, which is at least partially surrounded by a first plurality of finishing cells, and a second block extending adjacent the first block. The second block includes a second function cell array therein, which is at least partially surrounded by a second plurality of finishing cells. The first plurality of finishing cells include: (i) a first finishing cell placed at a boundary of the integrated circuit, and (ii) a second finishing cell different from the first finishing cell, which is placed at a boundary between the first block and the second block.

    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes first and second active patterns, a first gate structure, first and second channels, and first and second source/drain layers. The first and second active patterns extend in a first direction, and are spaced apart in a second direction. The first gate structure extends in the second direction on the first and second active patterns. The first channels are spaced apart in a third direction on the first active pattern. The second channels are spaced apart in the third direction on the second active pattern. The first source/drain layer having a first conductivity type is formed at a side of the first gate structure to contact the first channels. The second source/drain layer having a second conductivity type is formed at a side of the first gate structure to contact the second channels. Widths in the second direction of the first and second channels are different.
