CPC G06F 30/398 (2020.01) [G06F 30/367 (2020.01); G06F 30/392 (2020.01)] | 20 Claims |
1. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing data representing a layout of a first cell of an integrated circuit, the first cell of the integrated circuit comprising:
a first edge;
a second edge at an opposite side to the first edge of the first cell;
a diffusion region extending from the first edge to the second edge; and
a break in the diffusion region dividing the diffusion region into a first diffusion region and a second diffusion region spaced by the break in the diffusion region, the break in the diffusion region spaced away from a third edge of a second cell by a specified distance that degrades a metric of the second cell beyond a threshold level,
wherein the non-transitory computer readable medium stores a simulation model associated with the third edge spaced away from the break in the diffusion region by the specified distance that is less than or equal to a threshold distance, and
a simulation of the second cell is performed using the simulation model.
