Gate array architecture with multiple programmable regions

An integrated circuit includes a gate array layer having a two-dimensional array of logic gates, each logic gate including multiple transistors. At least one upper template-based metal layer is coupled to the gate array layer and is configured to define at least one of a power distribution network,...

Zusammenfassung:An integrated circuit includes a gate array layer having a two-dimensional array of logic gates, each logic gate including multiple transistors. At least one upper template-based metal layer is coupled to the gate array layer and is configured to define at least one of a power distribution network, a clock network and a global signal network. A configuration of traces attic upper template-based metal layer is at least mainly predetermined prior to design of the integrated circuit.
