  • Publication number: 20250165694
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are related to performing layout verification of a layout design of an integrated circuit having a slanted layout component. In one aspect, a slanted layout component having a side slanted from a base axis by an offset angle is detected. In one aspect, a first location of a vertex of the slanted layout component according to the offset angle is transformed to obtain a second location of a rotated vertex of a rotated layout component. In one aspect, layout verification is performed on the rotated layout component with respect to the base axis.
