Zusammenfassung: | A data processing system to implement wiring/silicon blockages via parameterized cells (pCells) includes a front end-of-line placement/blockage (FEOL P/B) controller to generate a placement blockage based on an input parameter corresponding to a physical design of an integrated circuit (IC). The FEOL P/B outputs a placement blockage parameter that is stored in a wire track allocation database to indicate the placement blockage. A back end-of-line wiring track (BEOL WT) controller generates a wire track blockage of the IC. A BEOL power track (BEOL PT) controller generates a metal blockage within the wire track blockage. A combination of the metal blockage and the wire track blockage defines a parent-child contract to enable concurrent physical design of the IC without creating shorts and overlaps in a child block of the IC. |
