    Abstract: A system and method for reducing density mismatch is disclosed. An embodiment comprises determining a conductor density and an active area density in a high density area and a low density area of a semiconductor device. Dummy material may be added to the low density area in order to raise the conductor density and the active area density, thereby reducing the internal density mismatches between the high density area and the low density area. Additionally, a similar process may be used to reduce external mismatches between different regions on the semiconductor substrate. Once these mismatches have been reduced, empty regions surrounding the different regions may additionally be filled in order to reduce the conductor density mismatch and the active area density mismatches.

    Abstract: A circuit for reducing phase distortion of a first signal and a second signal is provided, wherein the first and the second signals are complementary. The circuit includes a detecting circuit for detecting a first edge of the first signal and a second edge of the second signal, wherein the second edge immediately follows the first edge and is in a same direction as the first edge; an output node; and a signal regenerator connected to the detecting circuit and the output node. The signal regenerator is configured to generate an output signal having an additional first edge and an additional second edge. The additional first edge and the additional second edge are opposite edges substantially aligned to the first edge and the second edge, respectively. The additional first edge and the additional second edge are immediate neighboring edges.

    Abstract: The present disclosure describes an example method for cell placement in an integrated circuit (IC) layout design. The method includes defining a layout unit for a circuit implementation and arranging multiple layout units into a layout cell. The method also includes editing the layout cell to connect a first set of the layout units to be representative of the circuit implementation and to connect a second set of the layout units to be representative of a non-functional circuit. Further, the method includes inserting one or more dummy fill structures in areas of the layout cell unoccupied by the first and second sets of layout units.
