Zusammenfassung:In an embodiment, a method includes: receiving data representative of an electrical circuit including an arrangement of devices, inputs, outputs, and power sources; determining a minimum number of segments based on the received data; grouping the devices into N segments based on common features shared between two or more of the devices, where N is equal to the minimum number of segments; and generating discrete portions of the grouped devices to form a physical layout representative of a physical manifestation of the electrical circuit, such that when the discrete portions are integrated together they form a physical manifestation of the electrical circuit.
