摘要: A method is provided for designing a semiconductor chip having one or more functionally interfaced dynamic array sections. A virtual grate is laid out for conductive features used to define a gate electrode level of a dynamic array section. The virtual grate is defined by a framework of parallel lines defined at a substantially constant pitch. One or more conductive features are arranged along every line of the virtual grate. For each line of the virtual grate, a gap is defined between proximate ends of each pair of adjacent conductive features which are arranged along a common line of the virtual grate. Each gap is defined to maintain a substantially consistent separation between proximate ends of conductive features. Each conductive feature is defined to be devoid of a substantial change in direction, such that the conductive features remain substantially aligned to the framework of parallel lines of the virtual grate.

摘要: A semiconductor device includes a substrate portion and a number of diffusion regions defined within the substrate portion. The diffusion regions are separated from each other by a non-active region of the substrate portion. The semiconductor device includes a number of linear gate electrode segments defined to extend over the substrate portion in a single common direction. In one embodiment, the diffusion regions are defined in a non-symmetrical manner relative to a centerline of the substrate portion. In another embodiment, the substrate portion corresponds to a region of the semiconductor device in which first and second cells are defined, and respectively include diffusion shapes of different size. In another embodiment, one or more of the diffusion regions is defined to have a periphery formed by more than four orthogonally related sides.

摘要: A method is disclosed for defining a multiple patterned cell layout for use in an integrated circuit design. A layout is defined for a level of a cell in accordance with a dynamic array architecture so as to include a number of layout features. The number of layout features are linear-shaped and commonly oriented. The layout is split into a number of sub-layouts for the level of the cell. Each of the number of layout features in the layout is allocated to any one of the number of sub-layouts. Also, the layout is split such that each sub-layout is independently fabricatable. The sub-layouts for the level of the cell are stored on a computer readable medium.

摘要: An integrated circuit includes a first gate electrode track and a second gate electrode track. The first gate electrode track includes a first gate electrode feature that forms an n-channel transistor as it crosses an n-diffusion region. The first gate electrode track does not cross a p-diffusion region. The second gate electrode track includes a second gate electrode feature that forms a p-channel transistor as it crosses a p-diffusion region. The second gate electrode track does not cross an n-diffusion region. The integrated circuit also includes a linear shaped conductor that crosses both the first and second gate electrode features in a reference direction perpendicular to the first and second gate electrode tracks. The linear shaped conductor provides electrical connection between the first and second gate electrode features.

摘要: Gate structures are positioned within a region in accordance with a gate horizontal grid that includes at least seven gate gridlines separated from each other by a gate pitch of less than or equal to about 193 nanometers. Each gate structure has a substantially rectangular shape with a width of less than or equal to about 45 nanometers and is positioned to extend lengthwise along a corresponding gate gridline. Each gate gridline has at least one gate structure positioned thereon. A first-metal layer is formed above top surfaces of the gate structures within the region and includes first-metal structures positioned in accordance with a first-metal vertical grid that includes at least eight first-metal gridlines. Each first-metal structure has a substantially rectangular shape and is positioned to extend along a corresponding first-metal gridline. At least six contact structures of substantially rectangular shape contact the at least six gate structures.

摘要: A semiconductor chip is defined to include a logic block area having a first chip level in which layout features are placed according to a first virtual grate, and a second chip level in which layout features are placed according to a second virtual grate. A rational spatial relationship exists between the first and second virtual grates. A number of cells are placed within the logic block area. Each of the number of cells is defined according to an appropriate one of a number of cell phases. The appropriate one of the number of cell phases causes layout features in the first and second chip levels of a given placed cell to be aligned with the first and second virtual grates as positioned within the given placed cell.

摘要: An exclusive-or circuit includes a pass gate controlled by a second input node. The pass gate is connected to pass through a version of a logic state present at a first input node to an output node when so controlled. A transmission gate is controlled by the first input node. The transmission gate is connected to pass through a version of the logic state present at the second input node to the output node when so controlled. Pullup logic is controlled by both the first and second input nodes. The pullup logic is connected to drive the output node low when both the first and second input nodes are high. An exclusive-nor circuit is defined similar to the exclusive-or circuit, except that the pullup logic is replaced by pulldown logic which is connected to drive the output node high when both the first and second input nodes are high.
