Publication number: 20240176943Abstract: The technology involves the auto-creation of custom standard cells. The process may include receiving specifications for implementing a set of functionalities in an integrated circuit to be fabricated. From this, the system identifies which cells are required to implement the set of functionalities. The identified cells are evaluated against a standard cell library stored in memory to determine which of the cells are not in the standard cell library. The system automatically creates the cells that are not in the standard cell library. The system can then utilize the automatically created cells to fabricate the integrated circuit. Benefits of such an approach include reduced design, development time and improved design quality of results. The resulting new cells may have fewer transistors, less area/power and improved performance than a standard cell from a preexisting library, especially since such standard cells would not necessarily be configurable to perform the desired functions.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2023Publication date: May 30, 2024Applicant: X DEVELOPMENT LLCInventors: Xiaoqing Xu, Herman Schmit, Alessandro Tempia Calvino
