Abstract: Circuit design implementation can include selecting a first and second load each having a control pin of a same type driven by a different driver, determining whether the driver of the first load matches the driver of the second load, and modifying the circuit design to drive the control pins of the first load and the second load using the driver of the first load. Circuit design implementation can include selecting a net having a driver and a plurality of loads exceeding a threshold, determining a selected module of the circuit design having a number of the plurality of loads of the net that meet a cloning criteria, and, in response, modifying the circuit design by creating a clone of the driver within the selected module and driving each load of the net within the selected module with the clone of the driver.
