Abstract: A standard cell for use within an integrated circuit can be partially personalized by local wiring. The standard cell can include a set of transistors, each having a fixed size and position within an established standard cell perimeter. The set of transistors can be partially interconnected to a set of local nodes by local wiring. Customization ports can be arranged on a global wiring layer and electrically connected to the set of local nodes. A set of blockage in shapes can be arranged to identify, on a global wiring layer, areas reserved for personalization wiring. Personalization wiring can be configured to complete the personalization of the standard cell by electrically interconnecting, on the global wiring layer, some of the set of customization ports.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a register-transfer-level description and a gate-level description for an integrated circuit design. The gate-level description includes one or more spare latches implemented as reconfigurable latch filler cells. The method further includes receiving an engineering change order, and, responsive to the engineering change order, adding the at least one additional latch to the register-transfer-level description and, for at least one of the at least one additional latch, selecting one of the one or more spare latches in the register-transfer-level description to yield a selected spare latch. The method further includes, for the selected spare latch, identifying a selected reconfigurable latch filler cell in the gate-level description and replacing the selected reconfigurable latch filler cell with an operational latch in the gate-level description.
